Anmar, I was working on a script and needed to attain the domainname
to no avail. Looks like our setup is a bit messed-up in that regard.
Here is a very simple perl script to show the problem.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Domain;
my $hostname = &Net::Domain::hostname();
my $hostdomain = &Net::Domain::hostdomain();
my $domainname = &Net::Domain::domainname();
my $hostfqdn = &Net::Domain::hostfqdn();
print "hostname --> $hostname\n";
print "hostdomain --> $hostdomain\n";
print "domainname --> $domainname\n";
print "hostfqdn --> $hostfqdn\n";
What you should see is,
hostname --> sina
hostdomain --> arabeyes.org
domainname --> sina.arabeyes.org
hostfqdn --> sina.arabeyes.org
instead I'm getting,
hostname --> sina
hostdomain -->
domainname --> sina
hostfqdn --> sina
which is obviously wrong (looks like hostdomain is simply not set).
Let me know if I've overlooked something.
Salam.
