Hi all, I'm having some trouble following the instructions in section 7.11.
I'm installing on a computer that will be connected to the Internet via ADSL, using DHCP (not sure if that's relevant or not but it's there just in case). I don't understand this fully qualified domain name thing. What should I use? The hostname, as configured in the previous section, is "arya". And just to check that I'm understanding this correctly, the IP address in the second non-blank or -comment line in /etc/hosts is just any private IP address? So then, my /etc/hosts would end up looking like 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.1.1 arya.[something] Replacing [something] with the domain name? And what is an "alias"? How do I decide on one?
