I can't tell you why /etc/hosts isn't getting searched, but Patrick is right, the /etc/hosts entries should look something like:
# Syntax: # # IP-Address Full-Qualified-Hostname Short-Hostname #
127.0.0.1 localhost
# special IPv6 addresses ::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback
fe00::0 ipv6-localnet

Randall, what does your /etc/nsswitch.conf look like? It should have a hosts: line that mentions "files". If it doesn't your /etc/hosts won't be consulted. My stock one is: hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns Regards, Lew -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
