Change the entries in /etc/hosts to reflect the IP address changes. Also a FQDN contains three parts not two like you have set in /etc/hosts. There is a section in the admin manual that ships with SuSE and available in PDF format on the install media. What's an FQDN?
Fully Qualified Domain Name. One that resolves to the same address no matter where the resolution is initiated.
Thanks. I find that the hardest part of learning to do anything in Linux is learning the terminology.
By the way, A FQDN need not have three parts, it may have only two. Many people have ceased to use the conventional "www" component.
Visit any of these:
<http://cygwin.com/> <http://netscape.com/> <http://mozilla.org/> <http://archive.org/>
Often, two-component DNS names in the Web will be redirected to another address with more components, but not all are.
