a network warning occurs when log in
 
when I log in redhat9, an warning occurs:

Could look up Internet address for 32.79.193.202.in-addr.arpa.
This will prevent GNOME from operating correctly.It maybe possible to correct the problem by adding 32.79.193.202.in-addr.arpa to the file /etc/hosts.

how to cancel this warning?
any help would be appreciated.

But the address is a random one, they are different each time I log in

Looks like a DNS problem

what is the output of
cat /etc/hosts and cat /etc/resolv.conf

hosts should contain
127.0.0.1 localhost localdomain localhost
resolv.conf should contain the correct nameservers.

the ouput of "cat /etc/hosts and cat /etc/resolv.conf" is showing below:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 cricket-desktop

# 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

****************************************

search gliet.cn


nameserver 202.193.64.33
nameserver 202.103.243.112


************************************************************
the nameservers are both correct



any help would be appreciated.

I found that the address "32.79.193.202" in the warning string is the reverse order of my IP "202.193.79.32"

hope this would help.

Is there any one who had ever solved this problem?
