Error description

  • The host command fails to match hostname provided when
netcd
is running if the case is different from the /etc/hosts
file.
    /etc/hosts
        1.1.1.1       test
        2.2.2.2       test61

# host TEST
test is 1.1.1.1
# startsrc -s netcd
0513-059 The netcd Subsystem has been started. Subsystem
PID is 405634.
# host TEST
host: 0827-801 Host name TEST does not exist.

Local fix

  • Either disable netcd or make sure both upper AND lower
case
versions of the hostname are stated in the /etc/hosts, or
related db file.

Problem summary

  • host cmd becomes case sensitive when netcd is running.

Problem conclusion

  • Changed hash algorithm and compare logic.

Temporary fix
