Hi,
I am hoping to setup a fully qualified domain name for slrn and later
so I can set my own email server etc. I am running Ubuntu Dapper. But
I have not much of an idea how to do it.
My research so far has shown me:
Am I missing anything?
Well, you can name your LAN with a any_name.invalid without having to buy
a domain name. http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2606.txt
I went with static ip for my LAN nodes.
$ hostname
wb.home.invalid
$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.2.1 fw.home.invalid fw
192.168.2.12 wb1.home.invalid wb1
192.168.2.30 wb.home.invalid wb
If you do not want to go static, your get to setup named/bind and tell your
dhcp server what is going on, if not static, depending on what you want
your LAN to be able to do.
Off hand I can not remember if you put FQDN in
/etc/hostname or /etc/HOSTNAME for your distribution.
