RE: {bb} dig on clients?

["Cristian Danci" <cristiand@heatgroup.com.au>]

Thanks Phil,

This email in particular is for 5.1

However after doing a clean install on 5.3 (and coping the bbdef.sh from
the 5.1 box) I'm starting to believe it is a name issue.

On the 5.1 and 5.3 box; uname returns the name of the box which is
directly resolvable. 

$ uname -n
heat
$ ping heat
PING heat: (10.0.0.6): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.0.0.6: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.6: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0 ms
^C

However the bb server is sitting on fedora box (it has the host names as
heat.domain.com.au)

Does the server and the client need to have the same DNS entries?

Also I can't find "set -x":

# find . -exec grep "set -x" '{}' \; -print
# pwd
/home/crisd/bbnew/bbc1.9i-btf

So the one that we are concerned with here is 5.3

It would appear, from the previous output in BBOUT, that bb-combo.sh
may be the cause of part of the problem. If you remove the "set -x"
from bb-local.sh and add it to bb-combo.sh instead, you should get
a different trace output in BBOUT. Hopefully, that will provide
some more clues.

Also, with reference to your earlier post, if this machine has not
been configured with a hostname, you will have to provide a match
for the name used in the bb-hosts file in $BBHOME/etc/bbaliasname.
Otherwise, BB will not be able to determine how to correctly form
the messages it is trying to send.

Note that the "uname -n" command is not (directly) related to the
"named" daemon. I don't remember exactly how AIX used to do this
(and I don't think that I've ever seen 5.3), but "uname" is normally
just an interface to various local information. The "uname -n" often
uses a file, such as /etc/hostname, as a source. The DNS name (as
reported by "named" or another BIND) can be something else entirely.

Cheers, Phil.
