Just ran into this today after upgrading from 10.04 to 13.04.
What is the deal here? This is a major issue affecting web developers (and
others).
I don't see why network-manager should be overwriting changes I make in
/etc/hosts. (I could understand a block that it maintains within the file.)
Right, this also happens on 12.10. This basically means that one can not
change host name properly.

Alex, the policy on Stable Release Updates,
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates , is pretty clear that
fixes to core components, like network manager, are only appropriate if
they are of a high impact. Thus far this one has been shown to be of low
to moderate impact, and has a work
This has been in maverick-proposed for 100 days, and is verification-

much progress. Also, Maverick has lived with this bug for over a year,
so there's not much point fixing it now IMHO.

I think *any* rewriting of /etc/hosts by Network Manager (or anything

Aaaa! i have a setup where i must alias 127.0.0.1 to external
(real/existing) hostnames so that a clone of a customer website cannot
reach the outside world. After a restart of my machine, NM hosed the
aliases, which allowed my app to contact the production webserver,
deleting live db data
...and the 127.1.1.x remap is a painful workaround because i now have to

Please be polite and remain calm; we appreciate the issues you're facing

You should already have the correct version in update-manager; as

Actually, there is a workaround, and that would be to use another
127.x.y.z address just for the aliases. Could you try setting up your
aliases with say, 127.0.0.5 and letting us know whether it works fine
for you (and doesn't get overwritten by NM).
This seems like a very valid use case though,
Great suggestion, Mathieu -- unfortunately, NM overwrote all the
