Hi Rod,
Here is a  the output from " more /etc/hosts" -

[wayne@localhost wayne]$ more /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
# IP  FQDN          ALIAS
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
The output from ping-

[wayne@localhost wayne]$ ping localhost

As everyone can see the system is reconizing localhost. Do I have to
do anything with resolv.conf file , for that matter, is there
any other file I should update?
