Hi,
My hosts file looks OK. It looks like this
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX blablablablablabla
so I have 2 entries: the normal 127.0.0.1 and my IP. I can ping without
any problem to other machines. I think I will re-install the packages by
hand (using the rpm) and see what happens...
Thanks.
