To summarize a solution that should not conflict with anything:
* For automatic configuration, YaST should create a random hostname
domain should be 'local'. We might use some dictionary for random
hostname :) (+ some additional chars)
* $hostname and $hostname.local should be written to /etc/hosts
with address 127.0.0.1 (.2 conflicts with AD).
* AD should be fixed to use the external hostname, not the internal one.
See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localhost
IETF document "Special-Use IPv4 Addresses" (RFC 3330) describes the IPv4
address block 127.0.0.0/8 as being reserved IPv4 for loopback.
