On my woody box, I have an entry in /etc/hosts that looks like this: 10.1.1.1 foo.bar.com foo
There's also a record in dns for "foo.bar.com" that instead points to 10.1.1.2 -- I'm trying to explictely OVERRIDE that by making the /etc/hosts entry, so I have "hosts: files dns" in nsswitch.conf and "order hosts,bind" in host.conf. ... the manpages indicate this should work. If I "ping foo.bar.com" it pings 10.1.1.1. But if I "telnet foo.bar.com" or "rsync foo.bar.com::" it goes to 10.1.1.2. I'm wondering if this is somehow related: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2000-11/msg00172.html Any clues? -- thanks, Will -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
