Make sure that "hosts" is before "bind" in /etc/host.conf 2. Make sure that every host on the local network is refered to in /etc/hosts in every possible form, e.g.: 10.1.2.1 ws1.home.smlt.com. ws1.home.smlt.com ws1 10.1.2.2 ws2.home.smlt.com. ws2.home.smlt.com ws2 3. Make sure that "domain" is correct in /etc/resolv.conf. It should probably be domain home.smlt.com in your case. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mats Dufberg KTHNOC, KTH, S-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden Telefon/Phone: +46-8+790 83 46 Fax: +46-8-10 25 10 Email: dufberg@sunet.se SUNET:s www-katalog: http://www.sunet.se/sweden/main-sv.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
