[Users] Problem Creating "oVirt Engine" - Stuck on FQDN

Thanks for your reply.  Just in case, I'm using Fedora 18.

I "visited" the "hosts" file under "/etc/" and found:	
	127.0.0.1		localhost.localdomain localhost
	::1		localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

I also searched "/etc/" for "dns" and found "dnsmasq.d" and "dnsmasq.conf" file.  I proceeded to examine the "dnsmasq.conf" file with "gedit" and saw its paramenters - all of which appeared "commented".  I opened the "Software" GNOME application and searched for "dns".  I found several BIND packages selected (so I presume, "installed" as well) 

NOTE - With regards to DNS, this is a subject-matter I don't know much about besides how to make entries in the GUI that my domain provider gives me, and use dynamic DNS to find my house…!!!  

I don't know if Fedora 18 Desktop comes with a DNS server, and if so, with which one.  Hence, after having found sprinkles of "dnsmasq" under "/etc/", and knowing about BIND, I did a scavenger hunt about DNS in my system.  I first did a "man dnsmasq" and got the manual for "dnsmasq".  Also did a "man BIND" and got back what appeared to be "BIND's" manual.  Of the two, I reading the man pages, it appears "dnsmasq" is DNS alternative for what you suggest inside a "local network"; BIND would be overkill with what i'm trying to build.  

What are your thoughts about using "dnsmasq" as the "internal LAN" dns server used by oVirt Engine…? 

Nonetheless, not knowing which dns "server" is active, if any, I performed a "ps -A" (as the current user, with Admin privileges) and got:
[ovirtmanager at localhost ~]$ ps -A

After looking at both ps -A lists above, no dns service appears to be running.

What do you suggest I do to overcome the FQDN oVirt engine is stopping me at…?

Thanks for your help and understanding a novice…

Since I'm doing all from home (where I'm limited to a "Dynamic IP", albeit, which hardly-ever changes) I went to DynDns.org and created an entry so my "FQDN Text-URL" would resolve to the IP where I'm at.  I also modified my Domain's DNS and entered a "DNS Alias" named "dcmanagement", defining this "DNS alias" to resolve into my IP by going to DynDNS.org to get my "Public IP".  Hence, the alias "dcmanagement1" resolves by going to "healthcareinfopartners.dyndns.org" and gets my Public IP.
