- I followed this the advice I read here:
- https://superuser.com/questions/704785/ping-cant-resolve-hostname-but-nslookup-can:
- SOLUTION: the last suggestion on that page suggested checking on
- the validity of /etc/hosts. I had originally replcaed /etc/hosts
- with the one from http://hosts-file.net/?s=Download. there was
- something weird with it going --I tried overwriting it with the
- stock hosts file I had retained in case anything screws up; it
- timed out (the cp command just hung there!) So eventually I
- logged in with a sudo sh, then copied the stock hosts file to
- /etc/hosts. THEN shit worked.
- So in short I think 16.04 was fine with that hostsfile from
- https://hosts-file.net/?s=Download but 16.10 is not.
