Creating podcasts with weblog server not using fqdn of server

I just started using Apple's Web server on OS X Server version 1.4.5.

We enabled weblogs for the purpose of submitting podcasts. I submitted a podcast I created with Garageband and unfortunately the RSS code for it contains the URL for the server but WITHOUT the fully qualified domain.

I.e. it points to
itpc://servername:16080/weblog/podcastuser/?flavor=rss2
instead of
itpc://servername.full.domain.name:16080/weblog/podcastuser/?flavor=rss2

I can't figure out why it's doing this and am wondering if anybody would know how to fix it, other than manually editing the file (yuch).

Thanks in advance....
 
You could try some preferences of make a php or perl script to have it automated? I don't know much about OSX Server because I have it on DVD but not installed...
 
Well, the solution was on the client end. On the system I was connecting to the weblog server from, I had my local dns domain in the dns 'search path', and therefore wasn't using the full server.domainname in the URL. It seems the weblog jsp code uses whatever the URL you went to from your browser as the blog url.

When I took the search path out of the dns config area, things worked fine.

Have a Disney Day!
