Here is the best way to do this without having to ssh in or use command lines.
Download Cyberduck
Download metapad
Start up Cyberduck and use SSHD as the login type and use root for the username and alpine for the password
Navigate to /etc
Drag and drop the hosts file to your desktop
drag that file into metapad and edit it as posted on the previous page. The part that sais it is a blank line is just that...place your cursor at the end of the last line and hit delete and hold it to delete everything..then hit enter to add the next line...from there hit save. Then just simply drag that file back over into Cyberduck into the /etc directory...IF THERE ISN'T A BLANK LINE...IT WONT WORK
If someone else cannot do this...I will be more than happy to log into your system or do a video tutorial...I do understand that some people that come to these boards aren't computer geeks...its why the forum is here.
