"Verifying DNS setting" message during startup of Xfce

[jan]

Hi,

I upgraded my Xfce to v4.2 and during the startup sequence:

Verifying DNS setting ..

I get message:

"Cold not get internet address for laura.
...
..."

Where "laura" is my computer name (in /etc/hostname). I thought the
solution migh be to add pair "laura ip_address" in /etc/hosts however I
connect to network via DNS and usually I get new IP address every time I
connect.

Any ideas on this ?

Thanks
Jan
