It should be:
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.2 woody.lan1 woody
This is how I have my computers set up and it is how the hosts(5)
manual page shows an example hosts file:
-------------------- man hosts --------------------
EXAMPLE
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.10 foo.mydomain.org foo
192.168.1.13 bar.mydomain.org bar
146.82.138.7 master.debian.org master
209.237.226.90 www.opensource.org
-------------------- man hosts --------------------
Using a hosts file like this means that the same hosts file can be
used on all computers. The hosts file should not be computer specific
but describes the whole network.
I don't know how this would explain the problem that you are seeing
with the timeouts. A timeout of 2 minutes sounds like it is a
connection timeout but from the log file we can see that WWWOFFLE has
no open connections at the time.
