I never had a line in my /etc/hosts that had: 127.0.1.1 laptop
So I didn't see how this could be relevant. I had added some additional
127.0.0.1 lines to my hosts files, which I removed (restoring it to
pristine condition), and it made no difference. I tried manually adding
my hostname against 127.0.0.1, which also made no difference. "ifconfig
lo" looks like:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
RX packets:2657 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:2657 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:805852 (786.9 KiB) TX bytes:805852 (786.9 KiB)
So that all seems in order. My network is a wireless WPA connection
(which seems to be working fine). I do have an ethernet card, eth0,
which isn't connected to anything. My 'eth0' was supposedly 'up' (but
no IP address, as there isn't anything connected and the DHCP requests
just time out). If I do a manual 'ifdown eth0' (and restart apps etc) I
get no change.
In short, I haven't been able to do anything to the network to get this
to work, and it all seems to have very sensible, default settings.
If you want me to do some other debugging, let me know what types of
things to look at.
Thanks
