Hi All, i have a question to the Name Resolution. I have two hosts @ a switch. Sektor and Cyrix (both debian 3.0) When i connect from one to the other, I see that the system tries first to resolv 'Cyrix' from my Providers DNS. Of Course this isn't possible. It takes a long time till the System searches in /etc/hosts. But my nsswitch.conf is: hosts files dns my resolv.conf is: nameserver <IP_of_my_Providers_DNS> Normally the System has to search first in my /etc/hosts and then asking the DNS. And, of course, i have an hosts entry for cyrix. I'm just on Solaris till now, and in Solaris Enviroments the config of /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/resolv.conf is enough to say the System where to start with the resolution of hostnames. Is there anyone who knows something about that? greetz Aleks _______________________________________________ LinuxManagers mailing list - http://www.linuxmanagers.org submissions: LinuxManagers-35TzE1X9F6582KRnZfj+bdi2O/[email protected] subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.linuxmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxmanagers
