You don't edit the /etc/hosts .. What i gave an example is for named, not for /etc/hosts. You might go crazy editing /etc/hosts on a large network ! You don't add A records to the hosts file on each machine. An A record is the short for an Address record which translates the IP Address to names on the named daemon.
