I got the problem fixed off-list. The problem is actually in /scratchbox/etc/nsswitch.conf (host filesystem), not /scratchbox/users/<username>/targets/<targetname>/etc/nsswitch.conf (host filesystem, which shows up as /etc/nsswitch.conf in your target) So, in /scratchbox/etc/nsswitch.conf, Ubuntu Feisty users do need to change this line: hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 to hosts: files dns I wonder if the other nsswitch.conf files are even used. -- Murray Cumming [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ Scratchbox-users mailing list Scratchbox-users@lists.scratchbox.org http://lists.scratchbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scratchbox-users
