Description
The admin.conf contains this section:
[server]
- host:
We tell our users that the commented out values are the defaults so I expect host to be set to '' by default. This is especially true after fixing [0].
In looking in pulp/client_admin/pulp/client/admin/config.py I see this code:
'host': socket.gethostname()
This causes 'host' to unexpectedly default to socket.gethostname(). I expect defaults are not looked up dynamically at runtime, and that the values commented out in the admin.conf file to be the actual default. I think using localhost as a static default, and removing the socket.gethostname() would be the best.
