Someone offer some insight as how to resolve this?
Code: /bin/hostname --fqdn
results in
Code: hostname: Name or service not known
this is noticed in just deploying an Ubuntu 10.04 new Server config
Code: root@fms:~# hostname
fms.csr-az.com
Thanks

| Did you add the IP and FQDN to /etc/hosts? |

Yes, thank you. Following is the contents of the /etc/hosts.
I found performing the exact same set of actions on a Debian 6 everything works just fine. I am not sure what the issue is but seems to be specific to the Ubuntu 10.04 config here
# cat /etc/hosts
96.126.120.146 fms.csr-az.com
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost |

/etc/hosts should have
Code: yourip yourfqdn yourhostname
/etc/hostname should have
Code: yourhostname
Once done you can either reboot or run Code: start hostname |
