=== Investigation 5: How do I setup local hostname resolution? ===
{{Admon/note | Please take note! | On large public networks like the Internet or even large private networks we use a network service called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System Domain Name System (DNS)] to resolve the human friendly hostnames like '''fedoraproject.org''' to the computer friendly 32bit numeric addresses used by the IP protocol. On smaller ad-hoc networks we can use the <code>/etc/hosts</code> on each system to resolve names to addresses.}}
# Use the <code>hostname</code> and <code>ifconfig</code> commands on your fedora host and all 3 VM's to gather the information needed to configure the <code>/etc/hosts</code> file on the fedora host and the 3 VM's.
# Edit the <code>/etc/hosts</code> file on each of them so that they can all ping each other by name.
