It works, but it really is a setup issue, not one for Leafnode.  I
thought that MatÄj was talking about the documentation, not a tool.

In Debian-based systems before systemd, manually changing /etc/hostname
is all that was required. That never worked for RedHat-based.  Just
make a FQDN mandatory, as with the current package, and leave it to the
user to work out how to set it up.
