I'm currently arguing with a small part of a kickstart script that joins, and
updates the computers to the kickstart network. It works, appart from the fact
that it registers them as "localhost.localhost", as opposed to their machine
names.
The machines have the correct names when they reboot (that is, the pick up the
correct hostnames, and have the right ip addresses etc.), but it means that I
have to re-register them with RHN in order to give them a sane name.
I had this as a %post script:
#!/bin/sh -
. /etc/sysconfig/network
hostname -v -- "$HOSTNAME"
which might do the trick.
