I think that is trimming that file too much. I think the file needs to include the localhost.my.domain entry, even though every installation should be changing that 'my.domain' part. I would have it: # $FreeBSD: src/etc/hosts,v 1.16 2003/01/28 21:29:23 dbaker Exp $ # # Host Database # # This file should contain the addresses and aliases for local hosts that # share this file. Replace 'my.domain' below with the domainname of your # machine. # # See /etc/examples/hosts for additional important information. # ::1 localhost localhost.my.domain 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain My feeling is that it's okay if the distributed file has to be changed to get a working installation, just as long as the few details which are in that distributed file are not likely to change in the future. As long as the file will not repeatedly show up in the mergemaster step, then it will not a problem (IMO). -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senior Systems Programmer or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Troy, NY; USA _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
