norbert,

thank you for your quick reply.

in order to use hostnames, mysql server requires capability to RESOLVE
names.  it does not require a working NAME SERVER running on the same
host, but just that one of the name servers listed on /etc/resolv.conf
responds or corresponding hostname entries exist in /etc/hosts file.
