    Check your "/etc/nsswitch.conf" file for a line similar to:

            hosts: dns files

    (or anything else before the "files" keyword). If so, put the
    "files" keyword first:

            hosts: files dns

    You probably have a network-based authorization scheme such as
    NIS, kerberos or LDAP enabled and the "/etc/nsswitch.conf"
    incorrectly lists them before "files" in the host name resolution.

    HTH.
