.SH NAME
check-hostname \- check if sendmail can determine the system's fully-qualified host name
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fB /usr/sbin/check-hostname\fR 
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBcheck-hostname\fR script is a migration aid for \fBsendmail\fR(1M). This script tries to determine the local host's fully-qualified host name (FQHN) in a manner similar to \fBsendmail\fR(1M). If \fBcheck-hostname\fR is able to determine the \fBFQHN\fR of the local host, it reports success. Otherwise, \fBcheck-hostname\fR reports how to reconfigure the system so that the \fBFQHN\fR can be properly determined.
