In addition to the localhost entry, you should have an entry for your own hostname. If you're using DHCP and it's assigning you a hostname, you might see a performance improvement if you set a hostname in the network-config tool and add a line in /etc/hosts for that name as well. The /etc/hosts file on the machine I'm on now looks like: # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 127.0.0.1 herald.dragondsawn.net herald _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
