Thanks! The last part about the hosts file did the trick. I had already
changed the hostname.
The funny thing was the first line of the hosts file contained:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost mydomain.org
So I changed it to:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1 mydomain.org
Now it works.
