To repeat: /etc/hosts is a plain text file, owned by root:root and chmod 644. Use an editor of choice, mine is "vim". To illustrate you again the content, here mine as example: $ cat /etc/hosts # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.2 serendipity.dogma.lan serendipity "man hosts" should be explanation enough to understand how the line have to look like for a correct mapping. Very important is to have a working mapping for the localhost (so the comment in there).
