I see this too. Anybody know if the dhcp_name can be safely deleted without breaking other software (or not) ? -- ---------- Vince.Skahan@xxxxxxxxxx --------- Connexion by Boeing - Cabin Network -----Original Message----- From: Hunter Matthews [mailto:thm@xxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2002 12:16 PM To: kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: DHCP kickstart leads to bogus entry in /etc/hosts Has anyone else noticed that when doing a dhcp based kickstart, they end up with an /etc/hosts with 127.0.0.1 dhcp_name localhost.localdomain localhost Our mail admin recently made a change to sendmail that caused every message from these machines to boucnce. I assumed it was my configuration of sendmail (which is the config redhat ships, unmodified). By looking at the machines which bounced versus which didn't, I eventually found this line to be the culprit. Any idea if kickstart (or dhcpcd) can be told not to do this? -- Hunter Matthews Unix / Network Administrator Office: BioScience 145/244 Duke Univ.
