    sudo echo `hostname --fqdn` > /etc/mailname sudo sed -i "s/^myhostname = .*/myhostname = `hostname --fqdn`/" /etc/postfix/main.cf sudo sed -i "s/^mydestination = .*/mydestination = `hostname --fqdn`, localhost/" /etc/postfix/main.cf sudo service postfix reload

• Rackspace Ubuntu: The latest Ubuntu 10.04 kernel (linux-image-2.6.32-50-server) has a known issue where the server will hang indefinitely on reboot.  The repository freeze date has been rolled back to an earlier date (2013/07/03) to pick up the older known-good kernel (linux-image-2.6.32-48-server). Users are advised to not update the kernel until this issue has been confirmed as fixed – see: http://forums.citrix.com/thread.jspa?threadID=332737.  CloudStack Xen private cloud images are unaffected since an alternate kernel package is used (linux-image-ec2, containing kernel linux-image-2.6.32-355-ec2). (w-6106)
