macOS .local domain concern

Raw

To get rid of the .local in my hostname I had to do

sudo scutil --set HostName mymachine

Before this I got mymachine.local back from hostname

After this I just get mymachine, no .local part

Also go into the network System Preferences and make sure there are no Advanced setting (DNS IIRC) that specify a domain
