there are two ways you can get a short name to work - use a sys=xyz entry. if you also want to use dns to reach this node it would be conventional to have sys=xyz dom=xyz.dom. - having a proper ipnet to guide the terminal in selecting a default dns domain. i think at the minimum. please see /lib/ndb/local.complicated. (although the ipnet there does defined some unused-by-the-distribution keywords.) - erik
