I just noticed that the titlebar in my emacs frame always says
emacs@localhost.localdomain.  I checked the frame-title-format and it
checks with the system-name variable to find out what the system name
is.  When I run hostname from a shell I get my real hostname.  So why
is emacs not figuring it out?  Thanks for the help.

Emacs looks for a dot in the host name.  If your normal host name
doesn't have a dot, Emacs keeps looking for other aliases for the
host.
