• Howto fix a slow sudo

    I recently installed the latest Fedora release. After installation sudo was painfully slow. About 30 seconds until the command executed. The problem was, that the hostname was missing in /etc/hosts:

    Before:

    127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain localhost
    ::1             localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

    After:

    127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain localhost noneus-laptop
    ::1             localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

    In my case the hostname was noneus-laptop. You can figure out your own with the command hostname.
    Happy sudoing! :)
