[ale] hosts file problem?

[Matt Shade]

When you type
   %hostname    and
   %hostname -f
on each of them, what do they say?

tomahawk's might be set to just tomahawk. If you want to change it, run
%hostname tomahawk.mydomain.com

or you can change it in /etc/hostname and it should be read upon reboot.
