With most Linux Distributions I add the Hostname to the Entry for the actual IP Address Entry rather than the localhost Entry (127.0.0.1), although with Mandriva I find this "breaks" the Networking since it fails to start on at Boot Time... Mandriva seems much "happier" with its Hostname back on the localhost (127.0.0.1) Entry!!! If that is the case should I even have an Entry in /etc/hosts for the Workstation's IP Address and if so what Hostname should it have???

Appears this may NOT have been an issue about how the Hostname appeared within /etc/hosts, since I started having problems with the "original" 127.0.0.1 Entry as well... I have now removed the "Network Hotplugging" Option since this is NOT a Laptop, will see if that the Network Interface starts on future reboots???
