If you don't know what fully qualified domain name is, google it first. Let me show you my configuration: [dev@devmachine:~ ]$ hostname devmachine [dev@devmachine:~ ]$ hostname -f devmachine.mydomain [dev@devmachine:~ ]$ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost.localdomain localhost localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 192.168.9.168 devmachine.mydomain devmachine
where 192.168.9.168 is my machine ip, devmachine.mydomain is my host fqdn.
