If I take a look at /var/lib/dhclient/dhclient-eth0.leases (on the client), here's a summary of the lease:
lease { interface "eth0"; fixed-address 192.168.1.2; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option routers 192.168.1.254; option dhcp-lease-time 86400; option dhcp-message-type 5; option domain-name-servers 62.4.16.70,62.4.17.69; option dhcp-server-identifier 192.168.1.252; option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255; option host-name "raymonde"; option domain-name "local"; renew 1 2009/6/29 17:04:30; rebind 2 2009/6/30 04:47:44; expire 2 2009/6/30 07:47:44; }
Here's what 'hostname' returns:
# hostname raymonde
But when I go for the domain name, I get this:
# hostname -d hostname: Hôte inconnu --> means 'Unknown host' in french :o)
Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?
OK, I think I got my mistake. When I specify a domain name (with 'option domain-name'), this is in fact what gets written to the client's /etc/resolv.conf in the 'search' line. But to handle the fully qualified domain name centrally, I have to use DNS.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
