There is a tickbox in YaST configuration as Per mentioned in the first response in this thread, Message-ID: <kp3ug9$sdf$1@saturn.local.net>.
Yes, and I suggested in Bugzilla that YaST warns of the consequences either way. It is not very good if the user finds out that something is working badly and has to ask in mail list, forum, or google, or upstream. It saves time for all. I knew about deleting the line in hosts, but not of the tick box having that precise effect (it does not mention 127.0.0.2 in YaST tick box, not so easy to correlate, I'm afraid).
When you look at postfix' config with the line "inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost", it is sure meant that $myhostname is resolved to an "outside" address (as opposed to a localhost address). Postfix should check that the given addresses are available for its local installation, though. Maybe one can tell Wietse that this is a security flaw, it will be fixed at once ;-)
Maybe, but that's not for me to do. It has to be someone with better network expertise than me. :-) As for the $myhostname being an internet address - well, not always. It can be a local network server only, too. For internal exchange only. It just needs a working DNS server. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
