Hello,

I am trying to install Sun of Grid Engine on Debian-Lan system. I am 
running into an issue regarding hostname and DNS setup.

My issue is similar to a topic discussed in this 
thread http://arc.liv.ac.uk/pipermail/gridengine-users/2007-October/016288.html.

The main error message is " It is not supported for a Grid Engine 
installation that the local hostname  contains the hostname "localhost" 
and/or the IP address "127.0.x.x" of the loopback interface. The 
"localhost" hostname should be reserved for the loopback interface 
("127.0.0.1") and the real hostname should be assigned to one of the > 
physical or logical network interfaces of this machine. "

I have tried to change hostname and its ip address but I am not finding 
easy to change anything as Debian-Lan is setting up the DNS server. The 
hostname remains <myhostname>.intern and its corresponding address is 
127.0.0.1.

Thanks,
Eddy
