Just for the record: The claim that Solaris doesn't print the FQDN is incorrect. Solaris prints whatever the admin has configured in /etc/nodename. If the admin has configured the FQDN, "uname -n" will print the FQDN. AFAIK it is the same for HP-UX. So, FreeBSD really behaves the same as Solaris and HP-UX: If you configure the hostname to be the FQDN, "uname -n" will print it, just like the "hostname" command.
