Note that the name that is resolved is the one registered with <command>systemd-machined</command>, which
may be different than the hostname configured inside of the container.</para>
<para>Note that this NSS module only makes available names of the containers running immediately below
the current system context. It does not provide host name resolution for containers running side-by-side
with the invoking system context, or containers further up or down the container hierarchy. Or in other
words, on the host system it provides host name resolution for the containers running immediately below
the host environment. When used inside a container environment however, it will not be able to provide
name resolution for containers running on the host (as those are siblings and not children of the current
container environment), but instead only for nested containers running immediately below its own
container environment.</para>
<para>To activate the NSS module, add <literal>mymachines</literal> to the line starting with
<literal>hosts:</literal> in <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename>.</para>
