When I type hostname from a cmd, I get my machine name.
I would like to display my full qualified hostname. I
tried adding dns suffix to my hostname but still did not
get the changes. I am using Windows 2000
 
If you simply want to see the DNS suffix simply run ipconfig /all and look at the Primary DNS Suffix section. If you need to get this info from within a script, the
scripting language you use may have an API call that will return this.

Thank you,
