Hi, leafnode tries to lookup the hostname in /etc/hosts ... my hostname is me.foo.bar - a valid FQDN. But leafnode always returns 127.0.0.1 when generating the second part of my message-id. So I have to set the hostname in /etc/leafnode/config. Is this a bug and what can I do? Thanx for your help. Oliver -- ... don't touch the bang-bang fruit
