Yes, I found a couple of older, unresolved bugs with the same workaround: Moving wins to end of line in /etc/nsswitch.conf "fixed" problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/liferea/+bug/369274
However, moving wins after dns just disables wins, which then breaks samba. Removing wins "fixed" the problem here, too: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tk8.5/+bug/200397 Again, removing wins just breaks samba. The bug remains, either way. -- rhythmbox crashed with SIGSEGV in _nss_wins_gethostbyname_r() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/529714 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
