Hi all.

I'm trying to configure resolver under FreeBSD 4.5.1. I have no BIND on the
local machine. I have specified adresses of DNS servers, but it doesn't
resolve names to IP adresses.

***** Here is the content of /etc/resolv.conf:

domain my.domain
nameserver 209.51.128.18
nameserver 209.51.128.17

***** /etc/hosts.conf:

# First try the /etc/hosts file
hosts
# Now try the nameserver next.
bind
# If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line
# nis

***** /etc/hosts:

::1         localhost localhost.my.domain
127.0.0.1       localhost localhost.my.domain

***** Result of running "nslookup google.com":

Server:  dns2.gnax.net
Address:  209.51.128.18

Name:    google.com.my.domain
Served by:
- C.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- D.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- E.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- F.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- G.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET
      192.58.128.30

- K.ROOT-SERVERS.NET


- L.ROOT-SERVERS.NET

***** But when I run "ping google.com":
ping: cannot resolve google.com: No address associated with name

Why it doesn't work?

Best regards,
-Anton
