Hello; We run cfagent(2.1.10) as part of an installation using 'systemimager'. The $(host) variable is getting the wrong value. The string it is getting seems to be the name of the temporary boot system from systemimager (SystemImager-autoinstall-system) rather than the system name that DHCP already knows about at that point (testdev2-002).
Here is the beginning of the output from the run showing the incorrect host name: Reference time set to Wed Feb 16 18:00:17 2005 GNU Configuration Engine - 2.1.10 Free Software Foundation 1994- Donated by Mark Burgess, Faculty of Engineering, Oslo University College, 0254 Oslo, Norway ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Host name is: SystemImager-autoinstall-system Operating System Type is linux Operating System Release is 2.6.7 Architecture = i686 ----- These scripts work just fine on other distros ( RH-9.0, Suse-9.2) but not on Gentoo. Also, once the newly installed system is rebooted, the scripts do get the correct name, but this needs to work properly the first time. How is this variable being set by cfagent? Can (and should) I over-ride the $(host) value on the command line? I cannot seem to find it in the docs.
