Not very helpful really, I can't add chris to /etc/hosts unless I give chris a static address can I? The system certainly has 'chris' as its hostname and 'chris' is returned in response to entering the hostname command.
What do others here have in their /etc/hosts file? I.e. do you have an entry for the name of the system in /etc/hosts as well as specifying it in /etc/hostname?
I have: 127.0.1.1 timspc
Not sure if that was me or Ubuntu 10.04, but it seems to work fine.
