hmm, did you have a line without a hostname and just the IP? Yes I did. How reproducible: [root@<hostname> ~]# cat /etc/hosts # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 172.xx.xxx.141 localhost.localdomain 172.xx.xxx.224 This was my /etc/hosts before. I just set my config back to this, tried to run system-config-network and was able to reproduce the problem. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert a line into /etc/hosts with an IP but no hostname 2. Try to run system-config-network or from GUI Actual results: Network GUI crashes *** Bug 642152 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 682441 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 492915 *** *** Bug 531042 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 555196 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 614787 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 626058 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 667285 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 1055877 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 1083134 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Comment on attachment 400498 [details]

Created attachment 400498 [details] Crash Dump from system-config-network Description of problem: I moved a RHEL v5.4 VM from one ESX host to another which changed the IP configuration from static to DHCP. When initially setup, I had altered /etc/hosts file with the static IP/hostname of the VM. When I moved the VM to another ESX server and needed to change the IP assignment from static to dynamic, I did not remove the line from /etc/hosts. After the move, I attempted to run system-config-network from the CLI which crashed causing the error seen in the attached crash dump (this also occurred when trying to run from GUI - System->Administration->Network). Apon further investigation, I removed the old static IP line from /etc/hosts, restarted the network service and was able to successfully run the Network Manager from both CLI and GUI. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.3.99.18 How reproducible: Unsure. I tried to set the configuration back to the original state, but was unable to reproduce the issue. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
