The machine record exists in moira under the name
"localhost.localdomain". I don't know of any moira bugs that would
cause this. (I know that moira will use the workstations idea of the
. . .
There's a bug in RedHat Linux 6.1 -- the default installation creates
an /etc/hosts with this name in it associated with the IP address of
the host rather than 127.0.0.1.... if this machine is a RedHat 6.1 PC,
and if the moira client gets the local hostname by reverse resolving
the IP address, it would explain it.
