[opensuse-factory] Can't add Full-Qualified-Hostname to hosts file using yast2
Hello In the "/etc/hosts" file on opensuse 10.2, I have the "Full-Qualified-Hostname" on my machine in like this: # IP-Address Full-Qualified-Hostname Short-Hostname 127.0.0.2 my_hostname.my_dns my_hostname This was not the case with 10.3 after I installed it - so I tried to add it (for reasons I won't go into here). I can add a Full-Qualified-Hostname (in the form of the line above) manually via the command line but I can't using yast2 by running "DNS and Hostname" with the "Change Hostname via DHCP" and "Write to Hostname to /etc/hosts" options selected. This procedure works on 10.2 Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong here?

With what version of 10.3 You got this problem? I got this problem in the firts alphas, and in the beta versions do'nt appear any more.

Hi James,
In the "/etc/hosts" file on opensuse 10.2, I have the "Full-Qualified-Hostname" on my machine in like this: # IP-Address Full-Qualified-Hostname Short-Hostname 127.0.0.2 my_hostname.my_dns my_hostname
This was not the case with 10.3 after I installed it - so I tried to add it (for reasons I won't go into here).
I can add a Full-Qualified-Hostname (in the form of the line above) manually via the command line but I can't using yast2 by running "DNS and Hostname" with the "Change Hostname via DHCP" and "Write to Hostname to /etc/hosts" options selected.
Please file a bug and assign it to me. As there is a new feature in 10.3 ("Enable defining different hostname for each static IP address"), the way how hostnames are written to /etc/hosts has been changed. It seems that I've moved around more code than it was necessary :( Cheers B. -- \\\\\ Katarina Machalkova \\\\\\\__o YaST developer __\\\\\\\'/_ & hedgehog painter
