What does your nsswitch.conf file say? dns, ldap or files first?

Hi,

I have a RHE4 machine with the standard AMANDA config, and then I copied
over my amanda.conf file, disklist, and chg-conf file from the old
AMANDA server.

Now, all the clients report OK, except one! Stupid old AIX! Amcheck
says,

ERROR: stupid.server.edu [addr 555.555.555.555: hostname lookup failed]

Obviously I replace the true name & IP with fake names.

The IP is NOT CORRECT! Even in the /etc/hosts file, it has the correct
IP for this stupid.server.

Any ideas on why amanda would think that stupid.server is the wrong IP?
