My nnswitch.conf file got stepped on by something which substituted nsswitch.files during a reboot when I took the machine down to remove the 5 TB disk. This was after I had fixed the problem once already. Fortunately, I immediately recognized what had happened. I still don't no why though.

Hi all,
this sounds like nwam is enabled... That explains replacing of
nsswitch.conf (I had problems in the past - you might face it, because
you use old hipster, so disabled nwam and use static IP now).
Maybe, to replace nwam with static ip:

I'd been using a Linksys WRT54GL and DD-WRT for 12 years without any problems.
A few days ago I started having issues of not being able to properly making
connections. It might work fine for an hour and then web sites would time out
on access attempts.
I have replaced it with a Linksys N600. That is working fine from Debian 9.3,
but not with Hipster 2017.10.
If I do "nslookup login.yahoo.com" I get the usual response from the N600. But if I attempt
"traceroute login.yahoo.com" I get an "unknown host login.yahoo.com" .
"traceroute <ip addr>" works as expected.
I'm *very* rusty at this as I set everything up many years ago. I suspect the
issue is a conflict with nwamd. For Hipster I configured a static LAN ip
address in the traditional fashion.
I have the following settings:
/etc/hostname.<nic>
<static 192.168 ip addr>
/etc/defaultrouter
gateway <gateway 192.168. ip addr>
/etc/resolv.conf
nameserver <gateway 192.168 ip addr>
As an experiment I removed all those but nothing changed.
What things might I have misconfigured to create these symptoms?
You do not mention /etc/nsswitch.conf. I think, that too, is traditional way to
break things;)
rgds,

I am *not* a fan of "auto magical" anything. I've been administering my own
SunOS systems for 30 years starting with a 3/60 and 4.1.1a. So it's natural for me to
continue using the pattern set by that.
