I wanted to shorten writing some often used addresses like
penelopa.karlov.mff.cuni.cz
e.g. in a scp command. I want to only have to write penelopa.
If you don't want to wire down ip addresses in ndb:
penelopa = penelopa.karlov.mff.cuni.cz
and use $penelopa in your commands.

an ip address. also the spaces around the '='
mean that ndb will fail to see sys/penelopa
as a key/value pair.
since there is no ip address, dns is used.

Hello,
I wanted to shorten writing some often used addresses like
penelopa.karlov.mff.cuni.cz
e.g. in a scp command. I want to only have to write penelopa.
So I added
sys = penelopa
dom=penelopa.karlov.mff.cuni.cz
to /lib/ndb/local
