Hi,
I recently installed Ubuntu 20.04 and it did not ask for my domain. I
am building a PHP web hosting server for learning.
Prior to this when installing Linux it always asked me for the domain
the machine was going to be in. Maybe I missed something.
When I issued the command "hostname" it returned the host name. When I
issued the command "hostname -f" it only returned the hostname.
To fix this I added this line to /etc/hosts "255.255.255.255
hostname.Domain.tld hostname".
255.255.255.255 represents my public IP.
Questions
1) Did I miss something on the install?
2) I am running BIND so is the line I added necessary to "fix" the FQDN?
3) Is there another or better way?
4) Since my webserver is on a private IP using port forwarding, should I
use my private IP in /etc/hosts instead of my public IP?
Thanks!!
