Allen Wittenauer resolved HADOOP-6797.
--------------------------------------

    Resolution: Incomplete

I'm going to close this as stale at this point.

>     String[] ips = getIPs(strInterface);

> I have the situation where i choosing eth1 as network interface (fs.datanode.dns.interface and mapred.tasktracker.dns.interface) which is the internal interface.
> The reverse lookup fails for eth1 so the fallback:
> {noformat}
>     if (hosts.size() == 0)
>       return new String[] { InetAddress.getLocalHost().getCanonicalHostName() };
> {noformat}
> comes to action. The dns of eth0 is returned which is the external interface.
> This leads in my case to a combination of internal ip and external dns as the default ip/host.
