From Bug #561813 comment #3
### begin quote bug #561813 comment #3 a (little) error occurs during standard network installation with YAST as - if you change hostname.domain from .site (default) to .local no warning is given that the domain .local should no longer be used as it is due to Multicast DNS use. In order to prevent other users from running into the same rusty knife as I did please consider to move this report to another appropriate site in bugzillas report sites. ### end quote bug #561813 comment #3 As an alternative we have to offer the user the ability to disable multicast DNS via "mdns off" in /etc/host.conf. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
