Hi All,

How did you change the hostname. Simply as,

# hostname

If you did change hostname then reboot is needed to get effect all related operations. Try as,

# /sbin/init_parms hostname

it will ask for new password. Or else change /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file for HOSTNAME variable.

It will make permanent changes.

It is temporary change.

Hello,

Have you restarted swagentd ?

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop

# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start

should be helpful.

Hi all,

The file /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
file contains right name(i mean updated name of the machine) for HOSTNAME keyword.

And i have restarted swagentd also.

There is no file /sbin/init_parms

But still i am getting realm as wrong name.

Thanks,
MAdhava

swacl -l product \*

The swacl displays product.xyz.com
not flower.India.XYZ.COM

Hence what could be the problem.

Thanks,

Hi Madhava,

May be problem with DNS servers where name is not updates yet. Can you change the order in /etc/resolv.conf and check ?

See this:

I hope the entry of network host has to be set in /etc/resolv.conf with search entry.

what is there in /etc/nsswitch.conf file hosts: entry. It is purely resolvation problem. Try to check the information with nslookup.

If you don't mind can you post /etc/resolv.conf origial contents and swacl execution without xxx. It is confusing :(
