Etay: looks like name resolving is not working ok on my machine. I'm getting
'host not
found' when running host on my machine name. The name is configured in
/etc/hosts
and 'files' is set first in nsswitch.conf. Looks like the resolver is
bypassing the hosts file
and goes directly to the DNS server of my ISP.

Read my previous answer, however if you want the fix it's in 2.6.13-bs2 -

Etay: I updated my kernel tree using:

git pull
rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

(is that the correct way to pull Linus tree?)

and got the following errors on compilation:

Thanks a lot for your help,
