I did not have libnss-myhostname installed. I think it was always shipped with the debian installation, at least on wheezy 7.4 through 7.5, I now had wheezy 7.6 installed, Was this changed in 7.6 or I'm just wrong?
However I installed libnss-myhostname, amd I am now able to start proxmox pve-cluster, which I wasn't able before due to failing local dns lookup.
But still when I do host localhost, I still get not found. Is that the intended behavior? I just checked on different environments and I see tjat on mac os im also getting not found for localhost. So looks like Reco is right that thos is intended behavior. But on my other debian boxes < 7.6 it does work, so my question is why does it work there? So in short, was there any change in the last release?
Thanks
