Hi,

Before installing Enhance CP, I always do some basic setup on my servers, like adding a SUDO user, setup hostname, etc…

The /etc/hosts file default content on my server, came as:

127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 hostname.mydomain.com

::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

And I change it to:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
111.111.11.11 cp.mydomain.com cp

# ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
# ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
# ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

As you can see, I made some changes. Added my own server static IP (111.111.11.11) instead of 127.0.1.1, commented the IPv6 values, because this server does not has IPv6, etc... I think this is the correct way. Tell me if I'm wrong.

The issue is when I start the Enhance CP installation, it shows a warning saying that the CP subdomain (cp.mydomain.com) is already present in /etc/hosts and that I should let Enhance comment the lines, to prevent connection issues.

The thing is that my server hostname and CP url are the same (cp.mydomain.com).

Should I do that, I mean, let Enhance comment the lines? Should I not edit the default /etc/hosts?

I have setup the /etc/hosts as I do in all my other servers and as it is advise for example on the Linode official docs: https://techdocs.akamai.com/cloud-computing/docs/set-up-and-secure-a-compute-instance#configure-a-custom-hostname

Anyone, any ideas? Please advice. Thanks
