Thats a bit tricky since network-manager overwrites /etc/resolv.conf . I changed the file and did only a /etc/init.d/networking restart but the output of 'host localhost' is unchanged. > > > Does the problem go away if you change listen_addresses in the config? > Not sure if I read that correctly, did you mean that "Test 1" was > still done with "localhost", and "Test 2" was with 127.0.0.1 and the > problem was gone? No, I meant it that way: localhost -> problem occurs 127.0.0.1 -> problem occurs * -> problem is gone After your hint of missing localhost resolution and rethinking various times about it I now belive that this is the point. Perhaps network-manager (or something else ?) messed up with the configuration: * BOINC Manager is not able to connect to localhost, too (and it never was before). * Some time ago I configured cups and was able to connect to it via http://localhost:631/ but during examinating things here, I now can not connect to it any longer. Neither as localhost nor 127.0.0.1 nor the local network IPv4 adress. * 'ping localhost' resolves to 127.0.0.1 but has 100% Packet loss * 'ping6 localhost' returns 'unknown host' For me only three questions remain: 1. Why does your sloution work with listen_addresses = '*' ? 2. What caused the problem? 3. How to fix the localhost resolution? (But this shure is my problem, not yours ;-) ) Thank you, Christian # cat /etc/resolv.conf options single-request # Generated by NetworkManager domain Speedport_W_700V search Speedport_W_700V nameserver 192.168.2.1 # cat /etc/host.conf multi on # cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 Imperator # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
