Look under /etc for hosts.conf or nsswitch.conf:

    keramida@flame:/home/keramida$ ls -l /etc/hosts*
    -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  -  655 Feb 15 15:00 /etc/hosts
    -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  - 1484 Feb 15 15:00 /etc/hosts.allow
    -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  -  111 Feb 15 14:45 /etc/hosts.equiv
    -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  -   99 Feb 15 14:45 /etc/hosts.lpd
    keramida@flame:/home/keramida$ ls -l /etc/nss*
    -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  - 18 Feb 15 17:03 /etc/nsswitch.conf
    keramida@flame:/home/keramida$ grep hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf
    hosts: files dns
    keramida@flame:/home/keramida$

The locate database may not always be very up to date.
