Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 7.10
Network Manager
Do the following in the network manager:
1) Set the computer name -for ex. comp
2) Set the domain name - for ex. net
3) Go to the Computers tab and add new computer for ex. IP 192.168.1.2 and
alias comp,
4) Close the Network Manager
5) Open the Network Manager and check the computers tab, you will see tha the
IP address 192.168.1.2 has alias comp.net while it should have been only comp
The result is that I can't connect to the internet or the computer runs very
slow. I can't connect to the internet on my laptop using WiFi and on my desktop
everything is very slow.
To repair this i have to edit manually /etc/host and remove domain name .net
from the alias. After that everything runs smoothly.
