Everytime I use YaST to configure the network, it adds this line to /etc/hosts:

I have just this weekend installed 12.3 on a xen instance - I get no such line in /etc/hosts. I seem to remember a tickbox with a text along these lines : "write hostname to /etc/hosts" ? (which I never tick).
But I do. I will have to untick.
There is even a FATE related to this: https://features.opensuse.org/308824
Which has been rejected (reason: 11.3 is done). The bugzillas I tried give "access denied" after login.
Sorry, I didn't study the openFATE, my access doesn't work at the moment.
I created a new one.
Bug 824141 - appending 127.0.0.2 line to /etc/hosts causes postfix to go berseck
I think the real problem is that 127.0.0.2 wasn't assigned to the loopback interface.
What is wrong that postfix does not work with it?
The default value for 'inet_interfaces' is localhost, but you have presumably set it to 'telcontar' or $myhostname ?
inet_interfaces = $myhostname, localhost
and localhost last entry in the hosts file is set to ...2, which doesn't work. Well, actually it does, I'm pinging it. But not with postfix.
That's weird - then 127.0.0.2 is probably assigned to 'lo', so why can't postfix use it. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (20.4°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free DNS hosting, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
