V3 ideas: relieve dependence on resolving own hostname

Hi!
I hope this is the place to discuss ideas about glassfish v3, here's one:
If the hostname (as returned by the hostname command) does not resolve
to the local host, glassfish can't start up, as you guys probably know
much better than I do.
Worse yet, under some circumstancens if you make a mistake in the
/etc/hosts file, like adding the row about your hostname twice, ping
`hostname` works, and
glassfish does not.
We run into this in about every other deployment, especially when
a box works fine in the lab, only to break when shipped to its final site...
I am sure there must be very good reasons for certain components to
look each other up by hostname, but maybe there could be a fallback to
localhost or some other communication method altogether?
Thanks for your time, splendid product, love it, love it!

Very good. Other than being my boss, Eduardo is indeed very
knowledgeable about OSS. I'm sure he mentioned OSS wasn't about
free resources

I'd say "not just" or "not mainly". This idea was free, wasn't it?
And we may be able to pitch in in the implementation phase if deemed
useful. I must admit however we are merely users of glassfish as of
yet, and this seems like a rather fundamental aspect of the module
system to me.

Again, sorry, I didn't have my shot of coffee this morning
and this response was meant for a totally different thread.
Please disregard as it's not relevant to your suggestion which
I'm sure will get some comments from other folks.
cheers,
-Alexis

I agree.
This *must be* fixed for V3. I believe it will be.

Gabor, your timing is perfect! I sent out an email to this alias
yesterday looking for "features" we should put in GlassFish V3, and I
think that you have just introduced an ease-of use feature.
Thanks for the feedback. If you have any other GlassFish V3
enhancements please feel free to comment.
