Ok, I'm having those startup problems where it tries to add a route and
anll I get is "File exists" I was just reading over a message from earlier
and it said something about collapsing the ip addresses in /etc/hosts
(127.1 as opposed to 127.0.0.1) And I was wondering what exactly is the
proper format for my /etc/hosts file?

Should I have 127.1 or 127.0.0.1 and would this be causing the "File
exists" errors that I'm getting from route?
Thanks.
