Truthfully, I'm not sure. I've got a NIC in this machine, so localhost
and my "real" hostname are different IP addresses anyways. It's been
awhile since I've been without a NIC.
One other thing you could do is something like this instead of the two
lines:
127.0.0.1 majestic.unknown.net majestic localhost
That way it will recognize both localhost and majestic as "nicknames".
