Did you create nsswitch.conf in the glibc instructions? It should read:
/etc/nsswitch.conf:
...
hosts: files dns
...
That might not cause failures, but it could. Could you also try
compiling and running this program:
$ cat > gethost.c << "EOF"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <netdb.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
struct in_addr addr;
struct hostent *he;
char *ip;
if (argc > 1)
ip = argv[1];
else
ip = "127.0.0.1";
if (!inet_aton(ip, &addr)) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s: Invalid address\n", ip);
exit(1);
}
he = gethostbyaddr(&addr, sizeof(addr), AF_INET);
if (!he) {
herror("gethostbyaddr");
exit(1);
}
printf("%s hostname: %s\n", ip, he->h_name);
return 0;
}
EOF
$ gcc -o gethost gethost.c
$ ./gethost 127.0.0.1
$ getent hosts 127.0.0.1
