I need to edit the hosts file in /etc, but it says is autogenerated by a template. So how do I add a line if I need too?

Firstly, learn how to create and modify custom templates. For starters on this topic, have a look here :- http://www.e-smith.org/custom/

Good luck.

The url for the custom templates helped me out.
