The localhost line should be:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
The second line is only needed if you have IPV6 enabled as well as IPV4
addresses. Localhost is special (it is a loopback in your computer that
is entirely implemented in software) and is recognised by the special IP
address of 127.0.0.1
