# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
$ hostname -f
mailout01.controlledmail.com
From the problematic box mentioned in my previous comment (Dapper upgraded to Edgy) I have:
/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
72.81.252.19 mailout00
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
$ hostname -f
mailout00
If I change /etc/hosts to add the fqdn to it, I get:
$ hostname -f
mailout00.controlledmail.com
The basic problem that I think this bug is about is that /etc/hosts is not populated correctly by the installer. I suspect if you take marvin out of the 127.0.0.1 entry, you will get the correct result. The current installer does not appear to add it.
Not necessarily (about the order being important). On both Dapper and Edgy (as fresh installs) I have (for example):
/etc/hosts controlledmail. com mailout01
127.0.0.1 localhost
70.91.79.100 mailout01.

$ hostname -f controlledmail. com
