Subject: Removing host table entries
Question:
In the host table on our main box, I currently have 127.0.0.1 listed (domain name changed to protect the innocent) as:
LOOPBACK
LOCALHOST
foo.bar.com
Is there a way to get rid of the last name associated with 127.0.0.1? If I blank it out, it goes to "*SAME," and it comes back.
Understandably, I'm very cautious about getting rid of the host table entry for 127.0.0.1, in order to start that entry from scratch.
