Originally created by @twl9 on GitHub (Jun 3, 2024).

I re-installed a machine and now the hostname is not anymore identical to the domainname.

The first domainname for hostname production-example was production-example.netbird.cloud. After reinstalling this is now production-example-1.netbird.cloud.

I would like to:

  • Change this.
  • Clean up the list of domainnames.

Using the cloud version.

Hello @twl9, this happened because the original production-example peer was in the system, and on domain name collision, we add a -N where N is incremental.

You can update the domain name in the Dashboard by deleting or renaming the original node and then renaming the new peer.

The name edit is available in the individual peer view:

@mlsmaycon Clear! This is then a bug, and not a feature request.

Why? The peer was already deleted (before the new peer was added). And the domainname was still not equal to the hostname.

I solved it by changing the hostname fully, and then later back to the orginal name. Its not yet resolving, but I assume a matter of a few minuted.

@twl9 are you still having this issue or was it resolved with one of the NetBird updates?
