linux - vncserver

["bruce" <bedouglas earthlink net>]

hi.

i have vncserver running on a linux FC3 box. in adding another app, it
appears that vnc requires that my "/etc/hosts" file be set up with:
  127.0.0.1		foo	localhost.localdomain	localhost

foo in this case is the name of the box.

i'm trying to setup my VNC and the Condor app to work on a number of
machines in my network. it appears that i can't have "foo" on the same line
as the 127.0.0.1 for Condor to work. however, it appears that I can't remove
the 'foo' or the VNC doesn't seem to work. i'm using VNC to generate the
gnome display.

it appears that my issues are tied to the /etc/hosts file...

any thoughts/assistance will be appreciated.

thanks
