We are receiveing gethostbyname_r errors in the logs when starting the services on our new Linux server (we are 8.98.2.0). The issue is the the gethostbyname system command reads from the /etc/sysconfig/network file to get the hostname. By default, this parameter has the fully qualified domain name in it. We could fix this issue by removing the domain info from the parameter, and just leaving the short name, but our Linux admin would rather not do that, as he would like to follow some semblance of standards. Has anyone run into this issue, and gotten around it without removing the domain info from the parameter in the /etc/sysconfig/network file?
