You don't really _have_ to put it in /etc/hosts, as the system can simply pass the packets to the loopback interface and they'll get where they need to be. However, you can simply duplicate the 127.0.0.1 line and give it the same names. I've never seen that hurt anything. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
