fixed !!!! host alias not working: host not found
Hello,
I am working on HP-UX , and in the /etc/hosts file we have setup an alias:
aa.bb.cc.dd devmach2.unix.org devmach2 devma2v
The alias devma2v does not work. Error when pinging devma2v
ping: unknown host devma2v
For devmach2 the ping works fine , returning the correct IP (aa.bb.cc.dd)/
What could be the problem?
Thank you.
Well - the file /etc/nsswitch.conf was missing!!! That's why it didn't work.
