Fully Qualified Domain Name for JES on win2k
I'm trying to install the Java Enterprise System (java_es_05Q1-windows-x86) to a Win 2k workstation.
I get the following error msg:
"system doesn't have Fully Qualified Domain Name. Setup Fully Qualified Domain Name and then continue installation"
I included hostname in c:/Winnt/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
Regards,
Suri.

Hi, in WinXP (I think in Win2K that will be not very different), all you have to do is that:
1. Open Control Panel->System->Computer Name->Change->More ( this will open DNS Suffix and NetBios Computer Name ) : Enter your DNS suffix like that: "sun.com" (like ab.xy, with a dot) , and you may be asked to reboot.
2. To ensure your computer understand this suffix, you have to edit your file in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts, add one hostname with that new suffix:
example: 172.16.36.57 knvinh.sun.com
I hope this can help.
