Is there any reason why /etc/hosts would be missing the line, 127.0.0.1 localhost?
I just spent an hour trying to figure out why I could not connect to postgresql using ``psql -h ...'', finally figuring out that the /etc/hosts file was the problem.

To say that UNIX is doomed is pretty rabid, OS/2 will certainly play a role,
but you don't build a hundred million instructions per second multiprocessor
micro and then try to run it on OS/2. I mean, get serious.
