The file is /etc/conf.d/net, not /etc/conf.d/net.eth0 (you're probably |
| 15 |
confusing it with the initscript under /etc/init.d). |

If you're talking about the "hostname -d" command and the \O parameter |
| 24 |
inside /etc/issue not working, then this is an old problem (for me at |
| 25 |
least). |
| 26 |
To get it working, I had to put the fqdn of the box into /etc/hosts, eg |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
a.b.c.d host.domain.tld host |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
since configuring the domain as per the handbook (ie, |
| 31 |
inside /etc/conf.d/net using dns_domain_lo) has never worked for me. To |
| 32 |
be honest, a few paragraphs below, the handbook also tells you to put |
| 33 |
the fqdn into /etc/hosts. |
