Hi Dirk,

I just looked at it. Sorry, didn't have time for this before.

> I think Larry has come up with quite a good idea here.

Larry's "fix" is for another issue: He is overriding the IP's from
Vsites that automatically get put into /etc/hosts. That doesn't address
the sporadically disappearing custom entries after this line:

# END of auto-generated code. Customize beneath this line.

The problem was caused by the relevant section that added the custom
additions back in being commented out in
/usr/sausalito/handlers/base/network/etchosts.pl on 5209R and 5210R. Not
sure how that happened.

Code change in SVN:

https://devel.blueonyx.it/trac/changeset/4087/

I'm now publishing YUM updates for 5209R and 5210R that fix the issue.
