| Reason for hostname lookup failure is that localhost, nor localhost.localdomain is valid DNS names. What the machine tries to do is to lookup the names using sandard dns queries. The 12.7.0.0.1 and the 169.254.x.x are all internal ip-numbers that cannot be used on the internet. For internal network usage it should be fine to use those ip:s (127.0.0.1 is n loopback address that has to be available on all machines). What i would recommend is to give all machines ip-numbers in the same ip-number range and the most common ranges are 192.168.1.x and 192.168.0.x series, these are commonly used if sitting behind an router or firewall. Just don´t forget to configure them all with same router address. If not all machines are on the same ip-number range, then tey will also get routing problems. Hope this makes sence to you.
