Para Siva (psivaa) wrote : hostname of raring desktop vm does not match the entries /etc/hostname & /etc/hosts

It is impossible to ssh to a raring desktop vm using the hostname except the ip. It is required to manually edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts to include the domain name (.local) inorder for the ssh connection using the hostname to succeede.

1. Install raring desktop (20121128-amd64)
2. Install openssh-server
3. Get the hostname using hostname -A ( this returns the actual-host-name.domain-name)
4. ssh to the vm from the host using the hostname (attempting with .local and without .local fails)
