Package: libnss-mdns Version: 0.10-3 Severity: important Please help me figure out, I am not sure if this the right place for this issue.
I have here an application built on QT 3.3.8, that couldn't find the database server any more with error: QPSQL: Cannot connect to database could not translate hostname "postgres" to address: Name or service not known The application runs on a workstation, the database runs on the server, that is also doing DNS lookups and caching for the local network (dnsmasq). Trying to search for the reason there were two posssibilities: 1) I am running testing, so it could be the upgrade of a package 2) I installed in this period tomcat5.5 and sun-java5-bin, which pulls in avahi-daemon and libnss-mdns I am supposing, that 2) is the cause for the change, because experimenting with nsswitch.conf showed, that eliminating [NOTFOUND=return] from line hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 brought back connectivity for the application. I have no .local domains defined, neither on the server, nor on the workstation. Now I am not knowing, if this issue is placed right here or if I should report against avahi-daemon or if I should have reported not at all...;-) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable'), (600, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-1-obelix-opt (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libnss-mdns depends on: ii avahi-daemon 0.6.22-2 Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD daemon ii base-files 4.0.3 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii perl 5.8.8-12 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction libnss-mdns recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
