I have entry in /etc/hosts
1.1.1.1 db_external
When I am doing ping I get it correct
ping db_external
PING db_external (1.1.1.1)
When I am doing
getent hosts db_external
for some reason I got :
::1 db_external.localhost
What can be reason in that?
cat /etc/nsswitch.conf|grep hosts
#hosts: db files nisplus nis dns
hosts: files dns myhostname
Vult cloud image of centos 7
ps getent ahostsv4 or getent ahosts – works. But I have many entries in software with getent hosts
