Re: [Astlinux-users] AstLinux Documentation Wiki
Apologies to all, and to Darrick in particular, for having set this particular ball rolling. As he says, this originated off-list, and I am the one who mistakenly replied on-list. Please now ignore, and thanks for the suggestions. Apologies again Tom PS Yes, I also got the hostname and IP address the wrong way round, so thanks On 4 Jan 2010, at 22:04, Darrick Hartman wrote: > Can we please kill this thread?

Re: [Astlinux-users] AstLinux Documentation Wiki
Can we please kill this thread? It wasn't supposed to be on the mailing list anyway. We're working on updating the documentation. When we have the framework a little further along, we can use some additional people to help, but right now I think we're OK. This was intended only for that handful of people and not some permanent hack.

Re: [Astlinux-users] AstLinux Documentation Wiki
Tom, Hosts works fine here on XP Pro SP3 at c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts. However, I had to invert the order of the IP address and domain from that shown in Darrick's example. The entire file looks like this: # Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp. # # This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows. # # This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each # entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name. # The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one # space. # # Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual # lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol. # # For example: # # 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server # 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host 216.165.179.57doc.astlinux.org Dan On 1/4/2010 4:30 PM, Philip A.

Re: [Astlinux-users] AstLinux Documentation Wiki
It's the same format in linux. I did this with my /etc/hosts file and it came up fine as well. No need to reboot, should take effect instantly. -James On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 3:37 PM, Michael Keuter wrote: > >Really sorry to spam with OT beginner's networking problems, but adding > >doc.astlinux.org to my hosts file seems not to work.
