There should be a line there something like: hosts: file dns This tells your system what order to search things when resolving names. The example above says check the /etc/hosts file first then dns. You may by default have an entry for nis as well. If you are not running nis then it should not matter. You probably don't want to put dns first. I have always found it useful to be able to override dns results by putting entries in the hosts file when needed. -- Scot L. Harris <webid@xxxxxxxxxx>
