"workstation6l" seems not be full qualified. We check against the "hostname" command. It looks like the on your machine the hostname command returns "localhost", which looks wrong. Please check your network setup. But at all this is a "warning", not an "error". And the warning itself is correct. When you know that your value for "common name" is correct you can ignore this warning. I set this bug to invalid because it is not a bug. Everything works like expected. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

After a "clean" install from the openSuSE 10.3 alpha4 DVD it seems to retrieve the correct host name. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
