** Description changed: + Also 8.04 r2 LTS is affected. + Binary package hint: gnome-network - After a fresh install of Dapper, the '/etc/hosts' file looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 computername ... If I rename the computer to 'newname' using 'System-->Administration-->Networking', the file looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost newname 127.0.1.1 computername Obviously, it should be: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 newname This causes all sorts of nasty problems. Bugs reporting the same or similar : bug 48216 bug 239089 bug 229256 bug 336261 - - Also 8.04 r2 LTS is affected.
