From b12c315edef56515321306a692d0f2098f4e8ee0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Micah Anderson Date: Wed, 2 Apr 2014 12:38:28 -0400 Subject: Fix for satellite hosts that are unable to contact their relayhost because the DNS lookup is either impossible (.local domain), or incorrect (certain openstack/amazon/piston cloud configurations create this setup when the relayhost is in the same cluster as the satellite).
