Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 7.04, tested on two different machines found on the same network;
worth noting these are the only two machines running ubuntu.

Problem did not exist on Ubuntu 6.x

I hardly know how to explain this so ill state what has happened and
what i have done.

There are two difficulties
1)
There is a website maintained by my company. It is a backend system accessible 
from the web via https://my.iscgrp.com/
2)
There is an ssh service running on a public machine i wont give out but 
needless to say the same problem.

The problem is this using, firefox2, opera9 or links; i can not connect
to said public website. Or more specifically from what i can tell, it
DOES connect but does not receive any data back.

As with the ssh connection I cannot connect.

I also have vmplayer installed on my machine. If I boot up my windows
instance and use the virtual ethernet device (which is its own instance,
own ip; thats to say, NOT bridged to the ubuntu ethernet device) I CAN
connect to these things.

This problem persisted before i did the following as well. I had also noted 
that i could not connect to .local addresses on ubuntu 7.04 and found a bug 
report filed in regards to the /etc/nsswitch.conf file in regards to the 
following line
>> hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4

I'm uncertain which entry was the culprit but i do know its either
mdns4_minimal or [NOTFOUND=return] and ill keep my wild guesses to
myself.

Currently my /etc/nsswitch.conf looks as so to fix .local domain problems
>> hosts: files mdns4 dns #files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4

Upon doing a tcpdump on my ubuntu end of the transaction with the
webserver it appears to just hang around waiting for a response via
mdns. If i push dns before mdns4 it hangs as well. If i install wins and
add an entry preceeding those two, it hangs on wins as well waiting for
a response.

upon doing a tcpdump in regards to the ssh connection from the server
side and the ubuntu client side, both parties appear to be waiting on
something from the other, though im not at all familiar with tcpdump to
be making such deductions so i could be wrong.

As it is, im wondering if there is some sort of ssl package that is
lessed from from 7 vs 6 or if a configuration file has changed somehow
messing this up or if a compile went wrong for a low level service on
ubuntu 7. Right now im looking to install 6 on a virtual machine on my
workstation and investigate into config files.

Any help, ideas or feedback would be GREATLY appreciated.
