I misconfigured my system somehow,
so now I can't ping localhost:

# ping localhost
PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: No route to host
ping: sendto: No route to host
^C

# cat /etc/hosts
# $FreeBSD: head/etc/hosts 109997 2003-01-28 21:29:23Z dbaker $
#
::1                     localhost localhost.men.bris.ac.uk
127.0.0.1               localhost localhost.men.bris.ac.uk

So far, can't find anything relevant
on the net.

Please advise

many thanks
anton
