From 3c70e7a6c10d7b303159894e225e5767a811bfb5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Carver Date: Thu, 28 May 2015 20:04:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Elaborate on warning message The warning about removing 127.0.1.1 is potentially confusing (at least it confused me) because 127.0.0.1 is well known as the loopback address and it may not be apparent that the warning is actually about a different IP, 127.0.1.1 which is not as well known. This patch elaborates on the fact that 127.0.1.1, not 127.0.0.1 must be removed from /etc/hosts.
