Re: /etc/hosts

There are plenty of reasonable causes for this behaviour, and you can
set your hosts file in the system configuration. However the most simple
solution is chattr. Like so:

1. make your changes to /etc/hosts
2. run (as root) `chattr +i /etc/hosts`

Now the other programs will not be able to edit the file (and neither
will you be able to.)

To make it writable again run `chattr -i /etc/hosts`

Hope this helps!
