That /etc/hosts is on dragon and as far as I know (and have always done)
that is the right way to set it up.

If there is a better way to set it up, I'd like to know.

>From what I know, /etc/hosts reflects what the network looks like for the
machine it resides on, and for it (dragon), dragon is 127.0.0.1.

/etc/hosts on server looks like this
===================================
127.0.0.1               server.localdomain server
::1                     server6.localdomain6 server6
===================================

Dragon doesn't have an entry there because its IP is assigned by DHCP when
it connects to the network and I am not running a DNS server.
