sudo: unable to solve host hostname

1.症状:
当你是使用sudo来执行命令时,总是在命令执行时,首先输出:“sudo:unable to resolve host Lily-desktop”(假设Lily-desktop 是你的当前主机的名字(host-name)), 但是怎样才能使使用sudo像以前一样不错误提示,正常工作呢。

when you’re running commands with sudo at beginning.It outputs “sudo:unable to resolve host Lily-desktop”(here assume current host-name is Lily-desktop),however the commands work as well as before.

2.产生该症状的原因:
这种症状经常发生在更改了hostname的情形下。在通过 编辑 /etc/hostname 改变了主机名字(hostname)之后, 我们还需要改变 /etc/hosts文件的相应部分的内容

This always happens after host-name changed.After change host-name by edit /etc/hostname,we also need to do a change in /etc/hosts file.

3.解决方案:
Solve:
Edit /etc/hosts: // 编辑 /etc/hosts 文件
gksudo gedit /etc/hosts
make it looks like (change boldfaced words to current host-name): //使粗体字对应的词与当前的主机名即hostname 一致
127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 Lily-desktop

// 对于解决方案可以直接用命令 echo “127.0.0.1 yourhostname” >> /etc/hosts
这样会直接将主机名对应127.0.0.1追加到hosts末尾

// echo “test” > a.txt 会清除a.txt的内容, 然后添加"test"
