-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have seen a number of errors that could be due to the bug (probably inherited from RH) as described here.
The issue affects recent xinetd (specifically, swat, where we now suggest the use of only_from=127.0.0.1 instead of only_from = localhost) since resolving localhost does not work in recent versions of xinetd. http://www.speechio.org/speechio.faq.html This seems correct according to the hosts (5), as such : 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost (as it is currently by default) is incorrect, 127.0.0.1 localhost is correct, and 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain is acceptable. I haven't looked at the RFCs, but I suspect localhost.localdomain only came into existence with RH, and 'localdomain' is the correct FQDN for 127.0.0.1 Can someone fix this (if my assessment is correct)?
