Hi Eric,

I have 2 entries under /etc/hosts.

127.0.0.1 localhost

127.0.1.1 user-laptop

I can ping successfully between these 2 IP's with ssh localhost, ping user-laptop and vice-versa.

Thanks!

Alexis,

Can you successfully ping localhost?

 
What are the contents of /etc/hosts on your machine? Is there an entry
such as "127.0.0.1 localhost"?
