domain configuration

[phorize]

I messed up my in place upgrade from 8.3.6 to 8.3.7 so started again with a fresh flashed image. I've noticed that I can no longer access my pi using hostname.domain. I don't recall how the domain was configured in previous versions the hostname option in the system section won't accept values with a .domain in the them.

EDIT: i changed the hostname and added the local domain using hostnamectl set-hostname. I seem to remember that the hostname configuration could be done from the system menu in previous releases.

Trouble now is that the when I try and change other settings on the system section they can't be applied because the host.domain format isn't allowed in the hostname section.

You can only specify the hostname in moOde either via the Raspberry Pi Imager or via System Config after the image has been prepped and boots.

A .domain suffix can't be entered in System Config or in the Imager. The domain .local is a builtin domain in OS's that causes an mDNS query to be issued for the host.

Changing the hostname outside of moOde will prolly result in a non-functional system.

Your best bet is to start with a fresh image, prep SSH, userid and password with the Imager and after booting the system try http://moode, moode.local or IP_adddress.

Thanks. all fixed. I noticed that I hadn't turned ssh on in the imager. Wondering if that upset things. Anyway, all fine now. Thanks for the amazing work on this; the qobuz support is especially appreciated.
