I would think that could potentially open you up to something bad. Say you have payroll.mydomain.local and I join my linux box 'named 'payroll'.
Now someone goes to http://payroll.mydomain.local/ and it hits my box. Switching MDNS to the end (files dns mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return]) should fix the issue in cases where DNS wasn't down for some reason. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/94940 Title: mdns listed in nsswitch.conf causes excessive time for dns lookups To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/avahi/+bug/94940/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
