FINALLY!! I can get it all to work by putting "fedora.local" in /etc/hostname _and_ editing /etc/hosts to have "fedora.local" as the _first_ name for 127.0.0.1 .
I installed a Centos7 system and during the install process called it fedora.local. By default this was placed in etc/hostname. I did not add anything in the hosts file. I did make an entry for the host cos7 in the DNS to make it easier to contact. I also did not make a reverse entry. While yours is:
[fedora ~]# cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 fedora.local localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
Mine is [root@fedora ~]# cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
With both of those in place, "dnsdomainname" and "nfsidmap -d" both return "local", and the mapping works.
Same here. No issues.
Now, why on Earth did I want to run Fedora anyway? Oh that's right, there was an application I wanted to try that was only available as a flatpak on CentOS 8, and flatpaks have their own level of pain. That's all water over the dam now. I'm out of here. Thanks to all who offered help.
Happy all is well. Wondering why on earth you've not upgraded your systems to Centos8 :-) :-) FWIW, I too stay away from Flatpaks. For me they are more pain than they are worth. -- Did 황준호 die? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
