nsswitch.conf looks straighforward and should be default. I get a lot |
| 17 |
of output from those straces. Can you tell me what to look for? |

~/.ssh/config doesn't exist and /etc/ssh/ssh_config is all commented out. |

If I remove the domain and nameserver declarations in /etc/resolv.conf |
| 26 |
and add 'nameserver 8.8.8.8', it works properly. Is this something I |
| 27 |
should investigate, or more of a "don't worry about it" situation? I |
| 28 |
should be off of this wireless network very soon. |
