[jdd <jdd@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just discovered that my /etc/hosts file is full of "nil" elements
where it should have, for example 127.0.0.1 loclhost.
This, of course, disturbed part of the working. I think I'm not the
only one to have suche things (seen in internet, and probably on an
other suse machine, but I can only see it next week).

This seems to come from the install, several month ago, so difficult
to trace.

Do somebody have an idea of the reason a defaut install can do this?

thanks
jdd

the file:

127.0.0.1       nil

# special IPv6 addresses
::1             localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback

fe00::0         nil

ff00::0         nil
ff02::1         nil
ff02::2         nil
ff02::3         nil
