** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-network After a fresh install of Dapper, the '/etc/hosts' file looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 computername ... If I rename the computer to 'newname' using 'System-->Administration-->Networking', the file looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost newname 127.0.1.1 computername Obviously, it should be: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 newname This causes all sorts of nasty problems. + + + In 8.04 Rev.2 There are similar problems, after changing the domain, the entries are not correctly updated in the "hosts" and "hostnames" files. For details see bug 336261 + ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/336261 ) + I added this here because these two bugs are very similar.
