Truly wierd! Is it the Trump Deep State over? No, their entry is anotherfaketruth.com;) On Sat, Oct 14, 2017 at 5:16 PM, Brian OKeefe <okeefe@cybermesa.com> wrote:
Hi All I had written months back that I couldn't get onto most google sites, like search, maps, but I could connect to drive, gmail and others. since many sites use google I'd get a timed out error.

I run a couple virtual machines, one being FreeBsd, and could connect to all google on those. Then that stopped too. Looking in /etc/hosts I found:
$ cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 ubuntu-laptop localhost.localdomain localhost ::1 ubuntu-laptop localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 127.0.1.1 ubuntu-laptop

and found the last line-very weird! I commented it out and everything is back to normal. I'm wondering how that entry ever made it into the file though?
Best to all the Gluggers!

That last line is commented out. Very strange, indeed. On Sat, Oct 14, 2017 at 6:06 PM, Satsangat Khalsa <satsangat@khalsa.com> wrote:
