It all looks correct:
/etc/hosts:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 ryloth localhost.localdomain localhost
/etc/nsswitch.conf:
[root@ryloth etc]# grep ^hosts: /etc/nsswitch.conf
hosts: files nisplus dns
Thanks for your help guys!

: resolv.conf configures where your DNS servers are.

: It should look like this at a minimum:
:
: 127.0.0.1 localhost
:

: There should be other lines included for your network interfaces and
: other hosts that you want to hardcode.
:
: I'd also check your nsswitch.conf hosts line:
:
: $ grep ^hosts: /etc/nsswitch.conf
: hosts: files dns
:
: Which says for host resolution, look at /etc/hosts, then DNS (via
: resolv.conf.)
