Bug#895981: please cleanup /var/cache/nscd on restart
Any news on this? Did you report this bug upstream?
Here is a sample session showing the effect:
# ping lxc01
PING lxc01.example.de (172.16.99.198) 56(84) bytes of data.

See how the old IP address pops up again, as soon as nscd is active?
Obviously "service nscd stop" did not flush the cache.
