severity 594003 important forwarded 594003 http://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1618 thanks
Hej Stefan Thanks a lot for the report. Bug forwarded to upstream as bug http://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1618 including the extra information about the patch used. I do not really see the point in rewriting the 127.0.0.1 line as that almost always contain only the following 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost My opinion is that it should be kept as it usually is. But I'll check with upstream about their opinion. There may be special reasons for this.
