Hi,
I see a similar issue with the hosts database. Consider the following:
/etc/host.conf
order hosts, bind
multi on
/etc/nsswitch.conf:
...
hosts: files [!unavail=return] dns
/etc/hosts:
11.22.33.44 ldap.example.com
I'm trying to login as root into a system with LDAP logging installed.
Works fine with LDAP access,
but when DNS breaks, I hang resolving ldap.example.com and login times out.
I try to fix this using
hosts: files [something] dns
but the semantics do not allow me to cease enumeration on success in
files alone, but try on all.
Something is needed to stop enumeration semantics in this case.
Any solutions?
Regards
Alastair McKinstry
