WINS - name resolution error
Hi,
starting from 2016-11-07 whit the daily upgrade (detail attached) I
spot these errors:
~$ ping google.com
ping: debian.com: Errore di sistema # literally "System error"
and, in the attempt to download email:
mpop: cannot locate host pop.*.com: File o directory non esistente #
file or directory not found
These errors seems to be related to wins, a workaround I found is to
remove or move back "wins" in /etc/nsswitch.conf, form:
hosts: files wins dns mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=continue] mdns4
to
hosts: files dns mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=continue] wins mdns4
I have tired, without success, to edit STATUS>ACTION field as follow:
hosts: files wins [UNAVAIL=continue] dns mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=continue] mdns4
I would open a bug report but cannot figure out who is the culprit, it must be among the upgraded
packages, among these I suspect libwbclient0, I've done some tests
whit strace and ldd, but I'm not sure.
Regards
