Great, thats it. Now here it works too.
On the slave I had already removed the hostname from the 127.0.0.1  
address.
After I removed the hostname from the 127.0.0.1 address on the master  
the sync process works fine.

with this line it works
127.0.0.1                localhost.localdomain localhost

with this line I had the error above.
127.0.0.1                centos4-vm1 localhost.localdomain localhost
