Description Torsten Ermlich 2005-08-10 12:17:43 UTC

By defalut an invalid domain name is set by 'netcfg-10.0-1.noarch.rpm'.
/etc/HOSTNAME is defined to linux.site.
RFC2606 defines invalid domain-names to: .test, .example, .invalid &
.localhost - so they'd never be routed.

SuSE 9.3 has the same settings in 'netcfg-9.2-1.noarch.rpm'.

Have a nice day
Torsten

We will not change that again, use the correct one during installation.
