freebsd-dev/etc/hosts
Ruslan Ermilov 8afccfa91e Backout revision 1.9 that added `myname.my.domain' as another alias for
`localhost'.  If your /etc/nsswitch.conf has ``hosts: files dns'', and
you changed `myname.my.domain' in /etc/hosts to match hostname(1), and
you run inetd(8) with the -l option, any connect to `myname' using its
real IP address through inetd(8), e.g. `ftp -a myname', will spam your
/var/log/messages with:

inetd[PID]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 23: host name/name mismatch: myname.my.domain != localhost

This is especially bad for -STABLE, where /etc/host.conf defaults to
"files first then DNS" resolution order.

# According to RFC 1918, you can use the following IP networks for
# private nets which will never be connected to the Internet:
#
# 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255

# 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255

# In case you want to be able to connect to the Internet, you need
# real official assigned numbers. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not try
# to invent your own network numbers but instead get one from your
# network provider (if any) or from the Internet Registry (ftp to
