it seems there is a bug but i can not figure out in which component
if i try to connect with the full-qualified hostname it says
name or service not known, without the domain it works because
it is in "resolv.conf"
this does not affect ssh, seems to be global
the following apache-reverse-proxy too works only with non-fq hostname
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName
centos-vm.rhsoft.net
ServerAlias centos-vm
ProxyRequests Off
<Limit GET POST HEAD>
ProxyPass /
http://centos/
ProxyPassReverse /
http://centos/
ProxyTimeout 300
</Limit>
</VirtualHost>
