Can't ping "$ localhost"
Hi,
$ hostname lilium.my.domain On the same box: $ ping lilium.my.domain ping: unknown host: lilium.my.domain ( $ping lilium gives the same output) Is this normal? I have this result on two different OpenBSD computers. $ talk [name] talk: lilium.my.domain: Unknown host This makes me think it is not normal. Shouldn't talk work 'out of the box'? Is it necessary to put the local hostname in /etc/hosts ? |
