I missed what distro your using...
Here is a possible answer as to why if your running fedora core http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/users/2006-February/274721.html >From the man pages: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/nsswitch.conf.5.html NOTES Within each process that uses nsswitch.conf, the entire file is read only once; if the file is later changed, the process will continue using the old configuration. Did you restart and test again after you made changes to the file? Have you set SELinux to passive by issuing the command setenforce 0 and then of course there is this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/999725 also the latest release nots for NTPv4 say NTPv4 includes three new server discovery schemes, which in most applications can avoid per-host configuration altogether. Two of these are based on IP multicast technology, while the remaining one is based on crafted DNS lookups. See the Automatic NTP Configuration Schemes page for further information. If that is the case, You may simply need to restart the NTP after having DNS come up. You can set the via the systemctl functions, by making NTP require DNS before it starts up (you simply have to edit the config files in /etc/systemd > Subject: Re: Unwanted resolver usage of /etc/host.conf > From: [email protected] > Date: Sat, 23 Feb 2013 16:07:58 -0500 > To: [email protected] > CC: [email protected] > > > On Feb 22, 2013, at 10:28 PM, Andris Kalnozols <[email protected]> wrote: > > I stumbled upon the /etc/host.conf file and had to add the following > > line to get name resolution working again: > > > > order hosts,bind > I thought Linux should have that line by default.
