Bug 141961 – dnsdomainname

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description David Carlos Manuelda 2006-07-27 19:55:56 UTC]

Everytime I compile a kernel I get dnsdomainname: `Host' desconocido (not error but warning), and I see in a TTYx the following:

This is StormByte.unknown_domain (Linux ... ). I followed handbook to set domainname, I have rc-updated domainname and hostname in the default runlevel.

I have /etc/conf.d/domainname
# /etc/conf.d/domainname

# When setting up resolv.conf, what should take precedence?
#  0 = let dhcp/whatever override DNSDOMAIN
#  1 = override dhcp/whatever with DNSDOMAIN

OVERRIDE=1

# To have a proper FQDN, you need to setup /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf
# (domain entry in /etc/resolv.conf and FQDN in /etc/hosts).
#
# DNSDOMAIN merely sets the domain entry in /etc/resolv.conf, see
# the resolv.conf(5) manpage for more info.

DNSDOMAIN="SkyNet"

# For information on setting up NIS, please see:
#   http://www.linux-nis.org/nis-howto/HOWTO/

NISDOMAIN="SkyNet"

and /etc/conf.d/hostname
# /etc/conf.d/hostname

# Set to the hostname of this machine
HOSTNAME="StormByte"


Maybe a missconfiguration or a bug?
