No longer getting IPV6 errors in logwatch for bind. Everything
working.
I think removing my ISP's nameservers from /etc/resolv.conf was the
fix.
I just caught up on the thread. It looks like the core issue was never actually resolved: "getent hosts localhost" still doesn't return the expected result, right?
$ getent hosts localhost ::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6localhost6.localdomain6
Its returning exactly as above
$ grep ^hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf hosts: files dns myhostnameIts returning: files dns
If you're not getting the expected result from "getent", and if your nsswitch.conf lists "files", then glibc is somehow broken. "rpm -V glibc" might tell you how, or it might not. Could be that glibc can't load /lib64/libnss_files.so.2.
rpm -V returns nothing.
My bad, rpm -V glibc returns nothing.
