I only have loopback in /etc/hosts [TUE\shoop@pclin281] <~> cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 I search in .campus.tue.nl and .win.tue.nl: [TUE\shoop@pclin281] <~> grep search /etc/resolv.conf search campus.tue.nl. win.tue.nl. Hostname -f reliably returns .campus.tue.nl as it should [TUE\shoop@pclin281] <~> hostname -f pclin281.campus.tue.nl [TUE\shoop@pclin281] <~> hostname -f pclin281.campus.tue.nl But socket.getfqdn disagrees, even with itself when run multiple times: [TUE\shoop@pclin281] <~> python Python 2.7.3 (default, Aug 9 2012, 17:23:57) [GCC 4.7.1 20120720 (Red Hat 4.7.1-5)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import socket >>> socket.getfqdn() 'pclin281' >>> socket.getfqdn() 'pclin281.win.tue.nl' >>> socket.getfqdn() 'pclin281' >>> socket.getfqdn() 'pclin281.win.tue.nl' >>> Note that pclin281.win.tue.nl is in fact also a valid DNS entry, but not one that I would expect the function to ever return given the search order. ---------- nosy: +Stijn.Hoop _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5004> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
