I guess you had a space behind either "localhost" or "unix". This is already enough to prevent access. Canna is *very* picky about the syntax of /etc/hosts.canna.
But how should the space have been inserted? I did not touch the /etc/hosts* files and it had worked the previous day.
I thought that you had edited the /etc/hosts.canna file because you wrote:
What seemed to have helped finally on June 12 was to insert "unix" into the /etc/hosts file somewhere together with localhost.
The default /etc/hosts.canna file which comes with the SuSE canna package contains the two lines localhost unix i.e. if "unix" was not there and you had to insert it, it looks like you changed the default manually. When editing it is of course easy to accidentally insert an additional space somewhere. -- Mike Fabian <mfabian@suse.de> http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。
