I bet option A was written by the same person who thought 'rm -rf /' was a good idea. Definitely going with C, it's the tried and true answer here.

I think C is the most common setup for /etc/nsswitch.conf. It's a solid choice.

Yeah, C is the standard configuration for hosts. It's a reliable option.

Haha, 'multi on' in option A? Sounds like someone's trying to turn their computer into a disco ball. I'm going with C, it's the classic choice for nsswitch.conf.

Option B looks interesting, '192.168.168.4 dns-server', but I'm not sure if that's a valid statement in the nsswitch.conf file. Might be more of a DNS server configuration thing.

Yes, 'hosts: files dns' is a valid statement in the nsswitch.conf file for specifying the order of host resolution.

Option B is not a valid statement in the nsswitch.conf file. It seems more like a DNS server configuration.

Hmm, I was thinking option D, 'include /etc/nsswitch.d/', since that seems like it would let you include additional configuration files. But I'm probably overthinking this.

I'm pretty sure it's option C. The /etc/nsswitch.conf file specifies the order in which different sources are checked for various types of information, and 'hosts: files dns' is the standard configuration for resolving hostnames.

I'm not sure, but I think D) include /etc/nsswitch.d/ could also be valid as it includes additional configuration files.

I agree with Dawne, because it specifies the order in which the system will look for host information.
