Firefox doesn't resolve short hostnames
Hi
I have a problem with my firefox browser in my network. If I write the FQDN, than the website can be reached. If I write the short hostname, then the website can't be reached.
From the dos command utility on my windows machine, I can ping the host with the short name.
Do you have an idea why ths happens?
Thanks Peter

Hi,
You can try to right-click and Toggle keyword.enabled to False in about:config. Additionally you may also have to set browser.fixup.alternate.prefix and browser.fixup.alternate.suffix to blank values.
The Config Descriptions add-on adds helpful source comments in about:config.
