This was brought up before, but today again it bit me. There was a glibc update (fc34)
which provides a new nsswitch.conf with this line
hosts: files myhostname resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns
which caused all the aliases I had for my server to fail because my local dns was not
looked up.
Had to again remove the '[!UNAVAIL=return]' stanza.
Is this issue being fixed? I found this
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1717384
which suggests nsswitch.conf will become a fedora file (not glibc) and hopefully better,
but this log
has now been open for a long time.
