Hi, I've got an issue where hosts defined in my /etc/hosts are not being resolved. I've looked at resolv.conf, host.conf and nsswitch.conf and everything looks ok. It's my understanding that with the below configurations, /etc/hosts should be used first then DNS. Correct? This is a 6.1 system. host# cat resolv.conf local domain nameserver x.x.x.x cat host.conf # Auto-generated from nsswitch.conf, do not edit hosts dns host# cat nsswitch.conf group: compat group_compat: nis hosts: files dns networks: files passwd: compat passwd_compat: nis shells: files
