Bug ID: 231646
Summary: bsdinstall(8) Unable to resolve own hostname, causes
local mail to only queue
Product: Base System
Version: 11.2-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Using bsdinstall(8) I made a new system but did not configure the network.
After booting into the system, local mail was not working and I was unable to
root@my-test-mach:~ # ping `hostname`
ping: cannot resolv my-test-mach: Host name lookup failure
This causes all local mail to fail, /var/spool/mqueue just fills up. periodic
scripts therefore don't populate root's mail.
Solved by manually adding hostname to /etc/hosts
