Possibly fixed. There is possibly a bad entry in the nscd cache. Restarting nscd did not solve the problem until I changed /etc/nscd.conf from: enable-cache hosts yes to: enable-cache hosts no
I am not sure why restarting (machine and/or nscd daemon) did not clear the cache.
/var/db/nscd is the persistent cache location - you need to clear that out after stopping nscd if you want to clear the cache.
