I put an IPv4 entry for a server in my /etc/hosts file. I can
'ping bob', but 'host bob' comes back with:
Host bob not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
I have this vague memory from years back about a file that set
precedence of hosts file and dns for fqdn lookup. Can't remember
it of find it.
Of course the problem might simply be the host command is
incapable of processing the /etc/hosts file?
thanks for any help on this.
Check your /etc/host.conf for line
order hosts,bind
multi on
and /etc/nsswitch.conf for correct order
hosts: files dns
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns myhostname
However results may differ
