according to nsswitch.conf(5), the following line from my nsswitch.conf (which i never touched) says that if no dns is available at all, mdns is used for resolution hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 what is still strange, even if i manually set resolution to mdns4 only, i can't reproduce ping reverse-lookuping :-( if there are no new ideas on your side, i suggest this bug be set in a state which marks it as "not reproducable" until i find a way to reproduce it p.s.: i did though find another place where this information leaks to other users: $ ps aux |grep avahi-daemon avahi 5422 0.0 0.0 2868 1432 ? Ss 17:12 0:00 avahi-daemon: running [foobar.local] this is probably much less of a problem if not by design. -- SetHostName can be called by users https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/195140 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
