Try:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
10.1.1.2 box2
10.1.1.3 box3
10.1.1.4 box4
10.1.1.1 box1

Do not try giving the same alias or hostname to two different IP
addresses, that's bound to cause problems. Also, there's no need to put
the same name as an alias as you've got as a hostname, the aliases are
*optional* *alternatives*.
I've changed /etc/hosts pretty much as you suggested:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
10.1.1.2 box2
10.1.1.3 box3
10.1.1.4 box4
10.1.1.1 box1
192.168.1.226 box1

But that leaves me with two lines aliased to box1, I'm not sure if that can cause problems?
Can I put the bridge address on the line above it?

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
10.1.1.2 box2
10.1.1.3 box3
10.1.1.4 box4
10.1.1.1 192.168.1.226 box1

That looks as though it should accomplish the same thing?

Removing the "box1" alias from the first line results in a very slow reboot of the system, it stalls on "sendmail" and "sm-client" for something on the order of a minute on each one, adding "box1" reduces the entire boot process to what seems like less than a minute on this old computer. ...
