Not mandatory. If you put them there, then you'll be able
to access them easily from the oxygen console. You may end
up doing this more than once:
ping luke
But if luke is not in your /etc/hosts, then you'll have to type:
ping luke.mylongassdomainname.net
Heh. The minimum you want in your /etc/hosts is something
like what I do for my home setup:
127.0.0.1 localhost
10.2.3.254 hub.schalit.net hub
63.194.213.179 adsl-63-194-213-179.sfnc21.pacbell.net
10.2.3.1 luke.schalit.net luke
10.2.3.2 yoda.schalit.net yoda ftp web ntp1
10.2.3.3 xena.schalit.net xena
10.2.3.4 leia.schalit.net leia
But you'd only need the first three lines, adjusted for your setup.
Notice I left out the hostname alias for my external ip. Aliases
are not mandatory. It's debateable whether anything besides
the first line is mandatory, but three lines is the best minimum.
Good Luck,
Matt
