'host' is part of the bind-utils package. As such it is used to carry out DNS

What do you get if you simply do 'ping nas2'?

It would be nice if the application asked a resolver for
name resolution and the resolver looked for /etc/hosts, or
to see if a name server was running etc. It turns out there
is no such facility as a resolver. Each application has to
use its own method of name resolution. It can lookup
/etc/resolv.conf /etc/nsswitch.conf or it may not. If it
looks at these files, it doesn't have to take any notice of
the contents.
