Not replacing; adding:


Jaspers-MacBook-Pro:etc jasper$ 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 
fe80::1%lo0    localhost

# My local aliases
127.0.0.1    Jaspers-MacBook-Pro.local
