Dont' touch the nsswitch.conf if there is not need for it. The
/etc/hosts file is the one which is essential for your setup. Be sure it
contains the localhost IP mapping line. To speed up things insert a line
mapping your LAN server IP to it's FQDN and short name.

How long takes the name resolution for your server? Run "telnet
$SERVER_IP 110" as well "telnet $SERVER_NAME 110" to see how responsive
it is. If you run you own nameserver, do you have setup a proper reverse
zone?
