I haven't dealt with the DNS problem, but could you get around it with /etc/hosts? If all it's failing on is gethostbyname(thishost), then a proper /etc/hosts (and /etc/nsswitch.conf) should take care of that. FDS lives entirely in /opt/fedora-ds, so the easiest way to completely uninstall it is: # rpm -e fedora-ds # rm -rf /opt/fedora-ds Chris St. Pierre Unix Systems Administrator Nebraska Wesleyan University On Fri, 22 Dec 2006, Derrick MacPherson wrote: > I'm installing on a server I've got at home, and at the end of the setup I > get the gethostbyname failed when creating the server; I'm assuming this is > because the server is unable to get DNS cause there is none.
