[Bug 375593] Re: cannot browse samba shares without editing smb.conf

[Thierry Carrez]

"host unknown" is the expected result to "ping server" since none of
your NSS backends knows about your "server" to translate it to IP.
That's what allows bcast to take over in your name resolve order and
successfully find the share.

Glad there was some opt-out, dns redirection is a real PITA.
