http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1024652 Bug ID: 1024652 Summary: NetworkManger changes hostname Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: sweet_f_a@gmx.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- When openSUSE is booting up it sets the hostname from /etc/hostname without using the domain part. (Though it's questionable that it does something else than "hostname -F /etc/HOSTNAME", this is well known SUSE behavior.) When starting NetworkManager it re-sets the hostname FQDN from /etc/hostname. That's confusing and causes other programs to behave differently depending on NetworkManager is already started or not. I don't think there is any need to use two different hostnames during startup. And also no good reason why traditional network setup (wicked) and NM will cause different hostnames. As a side note NetworkManager does NOT set the hostname on "rcnetwork reload" which should be done if changing hostname is wanted at all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
