How can I see the full hostname in a VM?

[proxler]

environment:
Proxmox --> OpenVZ with vmbr0

problem:
the hostname in a OpenVZ-container appears only as the subdomain

example:
setting in Proxmox-Webinterface: server.client.com
display in OpenVZ-VM: 14:22:26 root@server:/

target:
14:22:26 root@server.client.com:/

I have tried:
- stop the VM
- edit the /etc/hostname in the VM
--> buh, of course the host overwrites this

/etc/hosts looks ok:
# Auto-generated hostname. Please do not remove this comment.
123.123.123.123 server.client.com server

anybody a hint?

thank you,
regards pehajo

what do you get for

> cat /etc/hostname

what template do you use? and also post the output of 'pveversion -v'.
