What if the computer isn't part of a domain?

Anyone know if you can get around entering a fully qualified hostname

(hostname.sub-domain.domain)? I am setting up a development environment and

the computer is part of an internal LAN with just a hostname/IP.

Ideally I would just specify its IP address or hostname and that would be it

but it forces you to enter at least a domain.

Thanks!

You can set a local domain name in the etc/hosts file and also

do: domainname <domain>
