Jeff the answer is complicated, and despite much trying I have not solved it. By specifing files before dns in /etc/nsswitch.conf you would expect that this would be so. SOME network daemons do infact do so eg ssh does NOT So with everything correct in /etc/hosts, no internet (no dns) we still get the delay (timeout) as the resolver tries to query the dns before quering the files. I can't change this behaviour. lTSP does it, as do all other machines. It is not an LTSP issue per say, LTSP suffers as do all others.
