loopback problems
 

Im running RH 7.2

I configured the network of the computer but
When I test the loopback
I get the next error
trying 127.0.0.1
Unable to connect to remote host
my /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.domain localhost
198.168.0.1 CANCERBERO.HQ.COM CANCERBERO

thanks in advance

I had the same problem with rh7.2. Make sure /ect/hosts and /etc/sysconfig/network are right, then do
>lfconfig lo 127.0.0.1

Hopefully that will do it. It's odd, the loopback device should be setup properly on installation. We probably messed sth up after install. Anyway, hope this helps.

cheers,
