I can 'ping bob', but 'host bob' comes back with: Host bob not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) I have this vague memory from years back about a file that set precedence of hosts file and dns for fqdn lookup. Can't remember it of find it. Of course the problem might simply be the host command is incapable of processing the /etc/hosts file? thanks for any help on this. Check your /etc/host.conf for line order hosts,bind
multi on
and /etc/nsswitch.conf for correct order hosts: files dns
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns myhostname
