google groups had little to say on this, aside from making sure that the network time protocol, ntp, is working. It works everytime the pc boots, only failing if I've forgotten to plug in an ethernet cord. anyhow, the internet is working. should I change from "localhost" to something else? What's this message indicative of, please? Admittedly, my searching wasn't particularly thorough... (no, I shouldn't be running as root.)
