Just out of curiosity, is it only applying localhost.localdomain to your 127.0.0.1 loopback interface (like it should), or is it trying to apply it to an ethernet or wifi interface (which it shouldn't)? Actual interfaces should get a different name than the loopback interface. Trying to use the same name to multiple interfaces is liable to upset something. Perhaps related, my /etc/hosts file just looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 With only those two lines in it. Network manager is being told what to do by my DHCP server. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.25.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Apr 28 21:49:45 UTC 2021 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
