Hi Mathieu, My ignorance is fairly colossal, but I have the latest network-manager 0.8.1+git.20100810t184654.ab580f4-0ubuntu2 - and I've been struggling with this .local domain Avahi doesn't much care for, for a few weeks now.
My /etc/hosts is (and I have ip6 on Ignore): 192.168.1.3 ubuntu # Added by NetworkManager 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ::1 ubuntu localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 127.0.1.1 ubuntu # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts --------- I also get this warning message from Avahi: "Avahi has detected a .local domain and is shutting down". And no one really seems to know much about it. My ISP swears it has nothing to do with them. Avahi say to check with my Network Administrator and he doesn't know squat cause that's me. I'd kind of like to get rid of it rather than follow the seemingly preferred tendency to "workaround" unknowns.... thanks for your work on this! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659872 Title: Aliases in /etc/hosts overwritten -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
