Hello all, I'm I've tried just about everything I could think of to get my hosts file working, and I'm still getting this -

Ip address associated with host name 'localhost.localomain' is '127.0.0.1'
-- 127.0.0.1 line contains fully qualified server host name(localhost.localdomain) in /etc/hosts, please remove it.

Heres what I've got in hosts..

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
205.150.122.74 scalix.osbie.ca scalix

any ideas would be appreciated thanks ;D

Do a hostname -s and hostname -f and see if it picks up the correct name
