The 3rd level is a good indicator that we really want a proper DNS name. I did investigate this very briefly back when this problem first occurred.
I also think that the nsswitch alteration is a good solution in the short term. The issue on the long term is that people with .local domain will see a decrease in performance in name resolution. I'm not sure how the nss module works internally, as in how fast it returns after an invalid request, so I don't know what the actual effect is. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441008 Title: under systemd avahi-daemon doesn't stay disabled when .local is detected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/avahi/+bug/1441008/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
