My fresh FC6 installation came with a broken /etc/hosts... # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. ::1 localhost.localdomain localhost This makes sense for IPv6, but I'm not using IPv6. Changing this to ... 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ...fixed a number of problems.
I actually had both the IPv4 and the IPv6 lines. I commented out the IPv6 stuff. Also, the IP address for the real hostname was broken too - I moved this machine to another net and I forgot to update /etc/hosts
So I fixed both issues and now whysynth is working. I am not sure which one was actually the cause.
I wonder why it's not using localhost, but the Ethernet address instead. Thanks! :-) -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/ _______________________________________________ Fedora-music-list mailing list Fedora-music-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-music-list
