Since I first came upon /etc/hosts, I was told I was supposed to put the short name as the 1st name of the first IP on my first ethernet port. I.e. The short names in your /etc/hosts really should be first on the line unless you want the resolver to return the long name... I mean, how would it know which was the real name? I don't think what you have in /etc/<filename> makes any difference to what the hostname command returns, but with all the changes, it might contact systemd for proper resolution and all bets are off then. ;-) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
