Gluster users - Jun 2009 - hostname vs IP in 2.0.2

Hi all,

I upgraded to 2.0.2 and I can't use hostnames from /etc/hosts in bind-addr
in
vol file or even the first (server) field in /etc/fstab !

IP address works. Maybe hostname would work too if it will be in DNS, but from 
/etc/hosts don't :(

It stops on startup on validation.

We don't use DNS for our local interfaces and I think it's not even a
good idea.

Is there some reason for this change?

I apologize for my violent message. It's not about /etc/hosts ..
I found the validation function in source code and now I see it's only the 
character test problem.
It's our fault that we use illegal character ("_" underscore) in
local hostnames

so sorry for the mail, but perhaps someone found this information usefull.
