actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
You have changed your hostname since install

a...@fileserver:~$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1       localhost fileserver
127.0.1.1       fileserver

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

a...@fileserver:~$ cat /etc/hostname 
fileserver

See how the hostname is in the file /etc/hostname and is also resolved
in /etc/hosts. This is important and simply changing the content of the
file /etc/hostname is NOT sufficient. Please check both files have a
matching hostname for your system. Yours should read:

a...@fileserver:~$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1       localhost tulku
127.0.1.1       tulku

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

a...@fileserver:~$ cat /etc/hostname 
tulku

If one is different, then open it with:

gksudo gedit

then save the fie and reboot (necessary)
