Comments? Why does RedHat use localhost.localdomain? And why is the
hostname set on 127.0.0.1 and not on the real ip?
If your hostname is on the 127.0.0.1 line it means either you didn't configure
networking during the install, or the ip address you configured wasn't
resolvable by that host at that time.
Actually, I've seen this as well. I can manually install and specify a
static IP, and the only place it goes is
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. This is a valid point, IMHO.
