DCOP & internet == bug ? ? ?

Hi there !

For my very first message, I have a very interesting problem

.
Indeed, when I'm connected to Internet, all the applications using DCOP take more than five "true" minutes to be launched out...
And when I'm disconnected, there is not problem at all !

Any idea ?
thank you very much

Check your /etc/hosts in the connected and the disconnected case.
Make sure your hostname and localhost are in there.

in both cases, /etc/hosts looks like this :

127.0.0.1 localhost

I saw the topic you showed me but there is no answer for this problem...

127.0.0.1 localhost

But then the entry for your hostname *is* missing.
Try to add something like
127.0.0.1 your_host_name
(on a line of its own)

Let's assume your computer is called "gandalf" then try the following /etc/hosts :

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 gandalf

(substitiute your real host name for "gandalf", of course)
