I seem to have broken my laptop and have been unable to figure it out.
Name resolution works great, except one address, which seems to be resolving to 0.0.0.1. Could you help me figure out what I have done and fix it?
The following lines are in /etc/hosts 192.168.11.1 dev.example.com 192.168.11.1 dev1.example.com
Pinging any other address that I try works, except dev.example.com.
