@Mathieu: Changing the order of items in the plugins= line does appear to allow the workaround you described to work, though not without some problems. First, below are the relevant lines from my modified /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf:
[main] plugins=keyfile,ifupdown [keyfile] hostname=<insert FQDN here> Unfortunately, this results in the system not being able to distinguish the machine name from the FQDN; i.e. both "hostname" and "hostname --fqdn" print out the FQDN, instead of only the latter doing so. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/663744 Title: changing /etc/hosts breaks ssh-login with kerberos -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
