Requirement When Using the Policy Server Tools on Linux Red Hat

For the Policy Server tools to work correctly on a Linux Red Hat operating system, define the Policy Server host name in /etc/hosts. You define the host name in this location because these utilities generate adminoids and OIDs. The operating system uses the gethostid() and gettimeofday() Linux functions when generating these OIDs.
