Before changing, make copies of:
/etc/hosts
/etc/rc.config.d/netconf
Then diff the files after the change but before rebooting. This is because for example a fully qualified host name (for sendmail) may disappear from /etc/hosts.

binlog.auth
binlog.auth(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual binlog.auth(4)
NAME
binlog.auth - authorization file for accepting remote binlog messages
SYNOPSIS
# format: Each fully qualified host name on a separate line hostname.domain_name
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/binlog.auth file specifies which remote hosts are allowed to forward binlog messages to the local host. For the sake of security,
only messages coming from remote hosts listed in the local /etc/binlog.auth file will be logged by the binlogd daemon.
Each remote host name should appear in a separate line in /etc/binlog.auth. A line started with the # character is considered as a comment
and is thus ignored.
A host name must be a complete domain name such as trout.zk3.dec.com. If a domain host name is given, it must either appear in the local
/etc/hosts file or be able to be resolved by the name server.
Note that a host name can have at most as many characters as defined by the MAXHOSTNAMELEN constant in <sys/param.h>, although each line in
the /etc/binlog.auth file can have up to 512 characters.
The /etc/binlog.auth file must be owned by root and has a permission of 0600.
If the /etc/binlog.auth file does not exist or it exists but is empty or has no valid remote host names in it, the system will assume no
remote host is allowed to forward binlog messages to the local host.
To invoke a new version of the /etc/binlog.auth file, run the following command (as the super user) to re-initialize the binlogd daemon:
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/binlogd.pid`
EXAMPLES
The following example provides a typical authorization file: # format: Each fully qualified host name on a separate line
c3poid.rvo.dec.com r2d2id.ckt.dec.com
FILES
Location of the authorization file.
