Ooo, that's probably going to break something else. You want localhost
to have matching forward and reverse name lookups.
I've always disagreed with Red Hat's convention of "127.0.0.1
localhost.localdomain localhost" and always change it to "127.0.0.1
localhost localhost.localdomain". Putting your hostname at the end of
the 127.0.0.1 line is acceptable, but putting in at the beginning is a
ticking bomb.
