Question number two of the day.
Can I make NetView display the fully qualified Hostname of a device rather
than the bit before the first "."?
I have been trawling the manuals and on-line reference information to find
out how to answer this, so I hope I haven't missed something really
obvious:
I did find one bit of information that said to put the fully qualified name
in to a local /etc/hosts file and set hosts=local,bind in /etc/netsvc.conf.
However, this requires a long hosts file in my case, which pretty much
obviates DNS and will require a lot of management.
What I want is a flag I can set somewhere!
Here's hoping!
