Try something like the appended file. The nsswitch.conf is documented
in the glibc info pages.

# /etc/nsswitch.files:

# An example file that could be copied over to /etc/nsswitch.conf; it
# does not use any naming service.
#
# "hosts:" and "services:" in this file are used only if the
# /etc/netconfig file has a "-" for nametoaddr_libs of "inet" transports.

passwd: files
group: files
hosts: files dns
networks: files
protocols: files
rpc: files
ethers: files
netmasks: files
bootparams: files
publickey: nisplus
netgroup: nisplus
automount: files
aliases: files
services: files

Thanx, this worked perfectly for me witha small local ethernet
and a dialout line.

Cheers,
Hunter
