It shouldn't matter.  Here inside Sun the norm is for hostname to be set
to the short form.

Yeah, I didn't notice that.  That could be the problem.  Again, the norm
is that the hostname command returns the short form of the canonical
hostname as returned by DNS.  Well, at least one of the canonical
hostnames (if a system is multi-homed then it's going to be one of the
names).
