DNS works, it happens immediately after modification of the file /etc/ nsswitch.conf It is magically that not need to restart any system service after modification of /etc file.


You should not need to modify /etc/nsswitch.conf by hand if your DHCP server supplied DNS parameters and NWAM is operating correctly. However, many of us periodically see NWAM fail to properly update nsswitch.conf, there are several bugs already filed in bugzilla about this. I continue to hope that someone from the NWAM team will pick it up and investigate...

The problem has not resolved after restarting of name-service-cache.
Here is /etc/nsswitch.conf from my system:

P.S. Excuse me for newbie question, how to watch system log messages? I found syslog file in /var/log, but it contains only messages from Sendmail:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# ls /var/log/
authlog gdm pool postrun.log sysidconfig.log syslog Xorg. 0.log Xorg.0.log.old
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat /var/log/syslog

Dump of communication between my OpenSolaris host (192.168.212.128) and VMWare DHCP server is attached. Network traffic was monitored after restarting the service "svc:/network/physical:nwam"

#svcadm restart svc:/network/physical:nwam

If there is a bug, i hope that attached log will be helpful for the NWAM team.

After restarting of the service the file "/etc/nsswitch.conf¨ has not been altered and DNS works perfectly for all applications.

Thanks,
Vitaly
