Can not install zimbra " fix /etc/hosts file " error

[albertonPSM]

Hello every one, I need some help, I tried to install zimbra (zcs-4.5.0_GA_612.RHEL4.tgz)
I'm using Centos 4.5 and during installation, I had the following errors:

ERROR: Installation CAN NOT Proceed. Please fix your / etc / hosts file

to contain:

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain

Zimbra install grants mysql permissions only to localhost and

localhost.localdomain users. But Fedora / RH installs leave lines Such

These as in / etc / hosts:

Myhost localhost.localdomain localhost 127.0.0.1 myhost.mydomain.com

This Causes MySQL to reject users coming from 127.0.0.1 as users from

myhost.mydomain.com. You Can read more details at:

MySQL Bugs: #11822: Reverse lookup for 127.0.0.1 not accounted for in mysql_install_db


I searched information in other forums about this error, and I tried to do what they say, but I have the same error
My /etc/hosts file is:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 servidor localhost.localdomain localhost

::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6

Why are you trying to install on old, unsupported (meaning if there's any problems they won't get fixed) version of Zimbra?

Your hosts file is incorrect, go to the Split DNS article (you'll need on set-up as you're behind a NAT router) and look at the 'Verify...' section for details of what should be in your hosts file.

I'd strongly suggest you do not install any version of Zimbra other than the most recent version and install it on a CentOS 5.5 server.

I read the article and I have almost everything set up as described there, the only thing I could not configure the dnsmasq, check this out:
[root @ server ~] # yum install dnsmasq
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00
base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00
addons 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00
extras 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Parsing package install arguments
No Match for argument: dnsmasq
Nothing to do

The article tells you to install BIND for a RHEL system (your installing Zimbra on CentOS a binary compatible rebuild of RHEL), use that.

You didn't answer my question about why you're trying to install Zimbra 4.x on your server - what's the answer?

[albertonPSM]

Because I've always worked with this version and so far everything is going well thanks anyway
I'll install the latest version of centos and zimbra

[albertonPSM]

I couldn't fix this error in this version of centos and I've done everything the article says, it doesn't work

[albertonPSM]

there is a problem that I want to install zimbra on the same server where I have installed squid
