hehe, so … if you ever change the hostname of a Linux machine, you really really ought to double-check /etc/hosts to make the same hostname change there
it’s surprising just how much will break if a machine’s own hostname isn’t resolvable to a 127.x.x.x address :P
I know this is the preferred way to do it now, but I sometimes worry that abstracting where things are configured in an is that configures everything in a file.
You used to only have to check two places to change a hostname.
