inet:gethostbyname issue

[Yogish Baliga]

erl -name baliga@REDACTED
1> inet:gethostbyname("foo").
{ok, {hostent, "foo"....}}

erl 
1> inet:gethostbyname("foo").
{ok, {hostent, "foo.example.com"...}}

When erlang node is started with long node name, inet:gethostbyname/1 return short hostname. But starting erlang node with short node name or no node name, inet:gethostbyname/1 return full hostname.

Any fix for this?

Thanx,
