Hi Chuck, We have been disabling NM for years now because of this. As far as I can see from it's behaviour, it sets the hostname all by itself, during startup (but I could be wrong here, didn't look in the source code). V.

I haven't tried this, but I suspect if the ::1 entry weren't there, NM would add "your.host.net your" to the IPv4 loopback entry, and we'd have the same problem. -- http://www.openoffice.nl/ Open Office - Linux Office Solutions Valentijn Sessink v.sessink@xxxxxxxxxxxxx +31(0)20-4214059 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
