At the moment, to start everything without errors at boottime, things are like
this:

[/etc/host.conf]
order hosts,bind
multi on
[//etc/host.conf]

[/etc/hosts]
127.0.0.1	localhost
192.168.1.2	server2.domain.nl    server2
[//etc/hosts]

[/etc/hostname]
server2.domain.nl
[//etc/hostname]

[/etc/domainname]
domain.nl
[//etc/domainname]

Of course things can be set in /etc/postfix/main.cf, but I'd like to keep
settings like these centralized. And postfix just complains if I change
/etc/hostname to "server2".

Cheers,
