Uh... Now, it's been many years since I ran 4.3, but this just sounds wrong.
But either way, /etc/hosts is not authorative no matter what.
Could you please do a netstat -in, and report the result?
I would expect there is two devices. qe0 and lo0, and the address
assigned to lo0 is what your "localhost" address should be.
Beyond that, it just looks like your name resolution is totally failing.
Can you ping some known address without involving dns or any sort of
name translation? Try something like ping -n 8.8.8.8 and report the
result (the -n is important here).
I would also suggest that you learn a bit more about networking and Unix
in general, but unfortunately I don't have any good suggestions on
source material for this.
Oh, and I hope your router is 192.168.0.1, or else you have more
misconfigurations in your system.

If Quasijarus is the same as vanilla 4.3BSD, unless otherwise

Henry,
That explains the weird /etc/hosts, 0.1 is localhost as you say. Here
are the results of the pings, ifconfig, and netstat - it looks odd, but
I'm not that knowledgeable about how it ought to look. My comments are
inline:
The first ping just sat there until I killed it:
# ping localhost
^C
Then I tried pinging a set number of times:
# ping -c 5 localhost
PING 5: 0 data bytes
^C----5 PING Statistics----
7 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
Then I tried the ip you suggested:
# ping 0.0.0.1
PING 0.0.0.1: 56 data bytes
^C
----0.0.0.1 PING Statistics----
3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
Then the address from the hosts file:
# ping 0.1
PING 0.1: 56 data bytes
^C
----0.1 PING Statistics----
5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss
The ifconfig result looks promising:
# ifconfig qe0
qe0: flags=43<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING>
inet 192.168.0.132 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
The 192.168 line in the netstat results is weird to me...:
# netstat -rn
Routing tables
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Interface
default 192.168.0.1 UG 0 15 qe0
192.168 192.168.0.132 U 1 24 qe0
Does this shed any light on my problem?
Thanks,
Will
