> For some reason (probably in our local DNS setup) gethostbyname_ex() does not return any fully qualified hostnames. This has never been an issue, everything has worked fully with the hostnames.
> However, this causes HOD to fail, as local_fqn() in util.py returns None.

> >>> import socket, os
> >>> socket.gethostbyname_ex(os.uname()[1])

> The solution is to fix local_fqdn in until.py, such that it falls back to the contents of the variable me if fqdn is still None.
