IIRC, the 127.0.0.1 should normally have only the "localhost" thing. $ cat /etc/hosts # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 That's all I have in that file. $ hostname centos501.homegroannetworking $ hostname --fqdn centos501.homegroannetworking $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 # VIA Technologies, Inc.
