Comment 2 for bug 141040

Hi Julius,

This is not really a bug as "canonical hostname" is the official name of your machine.

Here is an excerpt of: http://www.activexperts.com/support/activmonitor/dns/

A host may be known by more than one name. For example you might have a server that provides both FTP and World Wide Web servers, which you give two names: ftp.machine.org and www.machine.org. However, one of these names must be identified as the official or canonical hostname, while the others are simply aliases referring to the official hostname. The difference is that the canonical hostname is the one with an associated A record, while the others only have a record of type CNAME that points to the canonical hostname.

Moreover, this is the standard behaviour of phpsysinfo, see http://phpsysinfo.sourceforge.net/phpsysinfo-dev/?template=classic

Maybe you should rather file as a feature request against http://phpsysinfo.sourceforge.net/ .

regards
