@enelso:  Your hostname needs to be tied to an actual IP address on your local network which can send/receive traffic between all the hosts.  The address you have associated your hostname with is the loopback address, which cannot route actual network traffic off the host.

 

Use "ifconfig -a" to see a listing of your network interfaces and choose one that has an actual IP address.
