Public bug reported:

If hostname is "ubuntu" and http address is banana.ubuntu.com I get a
normal message that the site does not exist.

If hostname is "ubuntu.mydomain.org" (my own domainname that is...) and
http address is banana.ubuntu.com I see, using tcpdump that
Firefox/Konqueror/Opera tries to reach banana.ubuntu.com.mydomain.org,
this leads up to  a message from my domain registrar that the domain I
tried to reach is indeed registred with them (http://banana.ubuntu.com
is visible in the browsers address field so you'd think that's where you
are... but you're not... you're at banana.ubuntu.com.mydomain.org).

How to correct this? Is this even a bug?
