Cannot access Arch locally

Anyone have any idea why I suddenly cannot access anything on my Arch machine locally? 

For instance, if I try and SSH to 192.168.x.x it'll fail.  But I can still get to it by going to my public IP.  Samba is functioning the same way so it's not an SSH issue.

I do not have any firewall setup within Arch. 

Thanks for the help!

Re: Cannot access Arch locally

can you ssh to it by 127.0.0.1?  Have you upgraded recently? Check to see if your /etc/hosts and rc.conf have been squashed.

Re: Cannot access Arch locally

I'll try tonight.  In the meantime, here is my hosts file, is this the correct way to do it:

#
# /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
#

#<ip-address>   <hostname.domain.org>   <hostname>
127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain   localhost serverass1300
192.168.0.4             serverass1300.niftyass.com      serverass1300

# End of file

Is this the correct way to set it up?  What should I check in rc.conf, it has my corrent settings as far as I can tell.
