https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=441090 Summary: NetworkManager sets the hostname always to 'linux' Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Beta4 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: anschneider@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: ro@novell.com, samba-maintainers@SuSE.de Found By: --- I've installed Beta4 today on my notebook (new installation). NetworkManager always sets the hostname to 'linux'. It took me some time to find /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf which is was modified by /usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-opensuse-sysconfig-merge. The contetnt of /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf is: ---------------------------- [main] plugins=keyfile [keyfile] hostname=linux [suse] hostname-merged=true ---------------------------- nm-opensuse-sysconfig-merge can never correct the 'hostname' value cause 'hostname-merged=true' is set. Why doesn't NetworkManager respect /etc/HOSTNAME? -- 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.
