/etc/hosts:

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 gmckeown-laptop

# 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
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

/etc/hostname:

gmckeown-laptop


The different loopback address in /etc/hosts don't appear to make a difference 
to the HP tools -- they listen on 127.0.0.1 and try to connect to 127.0.0.1. As 
can be seen from part of the strace of the hp-toolbox process:

connect(7, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(2208),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, 16
