-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have recently setup logwatch-7.3.2 on a few of my machines along with sendmail. For all but one of the machines, I get emails that have the hostname in the subject line (Logwatch for capitol (Linux)) as well as on the line that reads 'Logfiles for Host' (Logfiles for Host: capitol).
However, on one machine, the hostname is not resolved correctly. The email has the subject line 'Logwatch for 10 (Linux)' and in the body of the email has 'Logfiles for Host: 10'. The IP address of this machine is 10.192.202.xxx, and the hostname is high. When I do a `hostname -va` on high, I get: gethostname()=`high' Resolving `high' ... Result: h_name=`high.opcdir.intranet' Result: h_aliases=`high' Result: h_aliases=`localhost' Result: h_addr_list=`127.0.0.1' high localhost When I run the same command on congress, which has a working logwatch, I get: gethostname()=`congress' Resolving `congress' ... Result: h_name=`congress.opcdir.intranet' Result: h_aliases=`congress' Result: h_aliases=`localhost' Result: h_addr_list=`127.0.0.1' congress localhost This seems to me to eliminate the possibility of a misconfigured hostname on high. Does anyone have an idea as to what is causing logwatch to not resolve the hostname correctly?
