What is the output from "echo $?", after you run the "getent ... "
command?

$ getent hosts `hostname`
$ echo $?
0


`hostname` should be replaced with a host...eg:

port:fred ~> getent hosts 'google.com'
173.194.41.160                          google.com
173.194.41.163                          google.com
173.194.41.168                          google.com
173.194.41.167                          google.com
173.194.41.161                          google.com
173.194.41.165                          google.com
173.194.41.164                          google.com
173.194.41.169                          google.com
173.194.41.174                          google.com
173.194.41.162                          google.com
173.194.41.166                          google.com
2a00:1450:4009:809::1003                google.com


Sent to quickly :~( if `hostname` is not returning anything then the current system does not have an /etc/myname file.
