`hostname` is a popular command available on both Linux and macOS. As per the man-page[1], `hostname --fqdn` command returns the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the system. The current Net::Domain perl module being used in the script for the same has been quite unrealiable in many cases. Thankfully, we now have a better check for valid_fqdn, which does reject the invalid FQDNs given by this module properly, but at the same time, it will result in a fallback to 'localhost.localdomain' being used. `hostname --fqdn` has been quite reliable (probably even more reliable than the Net::Domain module) and before falling back to 'localhost.localdomain', we should try to use it. Interestingly, the `hostname` command is actually used by perl modules like Net::Domain[2] and Sys::Hostname[3] to get the hostname. So, lets give `hostname --fqdn` a chance as well!
