Hosts file in Apache keep changing for OS Linux Redhat [on hold]
- by jack f
I have installed Apache server. Two clients ex client_1 and client_2. The operation that we are performing on client_1 reflecting to client_2. We have etc/hosts file in our software install location which is keep on changing for client_2 with client_1 IP address. If I correct the entries in hosts file to client_2 also in the next few minuets it is changing automatically to the client_1(if we start the client_1 service). Please explain the use of hosts file and where and when it will change by Apache service.
The hosts file in the location /etc/hosts/ for the both clients are same
=============================================
Do not remove the following line, or various programs
that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
Local LAN
190.0.0.1 client_1.Example.com client_1
190.0.0.2 client_2.Example.com client_2
HR LAN
10.1.74.2 client_1hr peer
10.1.74.3 client_2hr
ESP LAN
10.69.69.1 client_1esp
10.69.69.2 client_2esp
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
