[Xastir] festival problems

[Gerry Creager N5JXS]

Actually, if you're old enough, you would make sure it was more like,

#/etc/hosts
127.0.0.1	localhost.localdomain	localhost

I'm not sure you'll get much from the IPv6 stuff unless you've got an 
IPv6 router spouting Router Advertisement and auto-configuration info 
for you... unless you're running link-local on your little LAN, like I do...
