This is the host name cut at the first dot.", as it does in current Cauldron and Rawhide, whose hostname man page contains the identical description of -s as Factory's. -- 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.
