It may be sufficient to use an address that other equipment on your LAN can access (like the 192.168.0.0 range of IPs), or you may need a public IP address. And if you have a routable IP, your computer's hostname should point to it, too, not the local loopback IP. So if your /etc/hosts file looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain hostname hostname.localdomain Move the non-local addresses out of the 127.0.0.1 information line, more like this kind of thing: 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain 192.168.0.1 mycomputer mycomputer.example.com -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 4.15.10-200.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Mar 15 17:14:41 UTC 2018 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted. There is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list. A positive attitude is worth the effort if it annoys enough people. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
