What I think is that for the notes, there are a name x/ou/o for the server.
And Ihave host entry x in the DNS directory. DO u think need to add a host entry x.acme.com , and what is the actual purpose of apply this kind of name.
This field is asking for the hostname in the form of x.acme.com and is used to generate an appropriate reference to that server in all IP services (http, ldap, etc.).
