Probably should do that. I was a bit timid about messing with it, though, because of the warning at the top of the /etc/hosts file and also because note that 127.0.0.1 is already in there but Dynamips still tried ::1. Maybe it would have given up and tried 127.0.0.1 if I had waited longer.
opendoor18:/etc Priscilla$ cat hosts ## # Host Database # # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface # when the system is booting. Do not change this entry. ## 127.0.0.1 localhost 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost ::1 localhost
By the way I also wanted to mention that I used Dynagen too, which definitely made it easy.
