Networking: etch doesn't find local net



Hello list,

I've got a funny networking problem on debian etch, that I just cannot figure out:

/---
jw@johannes2:~$ host student2
student2 has address 192.168.0.31
jw@johannes2:~$ ping student2
ping: unknown host student2
jw@johannes2:~$ ping 192.168.0.31
PING 192.168.0.31 (192.168.0.31) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.0.31: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.61 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.0.31: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.323 ms

--- 192.168.0.31 ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1001ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.323/0.967/1.612/0.645 ms
jw@johannes2:~$
\---

NB: the same config files work on sarge.

Thanks for helping to figure this out.

Johannes
