Thanks for the suggestion, but it has still not solved the problem. In fact there wasn't even a /compat/linux/etc/hosts file, so I created one, containing the line: 127.0.0.1 localhost Dionysus (Dionysus is the hostname of my machine). Unfortunately this had no effect, even after unloading and reloading the linux.ko module to ensure it parsed the new configuration file. /compat/linux/etc/hosts.conf is set so it parses hosts first as well. Any ideas? It's completely bizarre, Linux emulation has always worked perfectly for me before... John.
