Hello,
my 9.0-RC2 installation on furnace.wzff.de keeps connecting to wzff.de
if a hostname cannot be resolved. E.g. telnet foobar 25 connects me to
the SMTP server on wzff.de, same thing for another jail that uses a
subdomain of barfooze.de and tries to connect to barfooze.de if it can't
find
Change your DNS server to Google (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4).
It's your DNS providers' doing.

Hi,
Nope, it's not my DNS provider. I checked that.
On the furnace.wzff.de jail:

The /etc/hosts file is used to
the given hostname to that IP adress. This
enables the system to resolve to this IP when the literal name
is given. This resolution is one of the basic principles.
Allthough the line works, it should be formed this way (or, it

wondering what the machines hostname should be? By default it's
of convenience many moons ago :)
I keep visualizing a domain as in 3-4 servers each of
which has a hostname mail, web, etc..
fairly close, some times you will actually find servers that actually are
named web mail, or have names after services. myself, i have names that
ive chosen, and then use DNS
Hello,
I have a FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE-p28 server that was initially configured with
the hostname mydomain.com. I am trying to permanently change that to be
www.mydomain.com. I have added this line to my /etc/rc.conf file:
hostname=www.mydomain.com
but after restarting the server it continues

No, there's not. This is the entire rc.conf file:
hostname=www.mydomain.com
sshd_enable=NO
vsapd_enable=YES
enable_quotas=YES
clamav_clamd_enable=YES
spamd_enable=YES
spamd_pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid
spamd_flags=-c -d -r ${spamd_pidfile} --socketpath=/var/run/spamd.sock
mysql_enable=YES
Thanks for the suggestions.
That's right, I'm not using DHCP.
I searched through /etc and /usr/local/etc for calls to hostname and for the

in /etc/rc.network and my setting of the hostname variable in /etc/rc.conf.

Perhaps another tack, what is the last script executed during
boot up? If I add a line like /bin/hostname www.mydomain.com to
/etc/rc.local should this force the hostname change?
Start with man rc.d.

/rc.after_everything.d (same
permissions as /usr/local/etc/rc.d) and put a file named hostname.sh in that
directory with this content:
#!/bin/sh
/bin/hostname your_hostname_here
Make the file executable.

From what I've understood after a bit of searching, the answer lies probably
in the /etc/hosts file. So here goes :
, the answer lies probably
in the /etc/hosts file. So here goes :
127.0.0.1 localhost alice
192.168.1.2 alice
The hostname alice should have a domain part. And it should match the
hostname that is set in /etc/rc.conf. E.g, if /etc/rc.conf says
hostname
