Hello,
in my understanding the /etc/hosts file should contain an entry with the
FQDN of the host.
123.123.123.123 hostname.domain.tld hostname
I would for simplicity prefer to use a domain name instead of a FQDN.
123.123.123.123 domain.tld hostname
In my DNS-configuration I can define an IP- address for both the domain
name and the subdomain.
domain.tld -> 123.123.123.123
subdomain.domain.tld -> 123.123.123.123
So both addresses are unambiguous. For what reason now would I need a
FQDN? Why wouldn't a domain name suffice?
Cheers, Stefan
