Next, be aware that 'uname' and 'hostname' are both, inherently, orthogonal to, i.e., independent of, anything having to do with DNS. 'uname' just reports what 'hostname' told it to say, and 'hostname' doesn't have any bone fides (check the darwin development list, where this was discussed in nauseating detail recently).

This has been discussed on darwin-development but the recent thread was on the "macnetworkprog" list.
