%cat /etc/resolv.conf domain buildreferrals.com nameserver 127.0.0.1 %cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain 65.119.108.130 db db.buildreferrals.com %host db db.buildreferrals.com has address 66.33.85.240 What's happening above? I'm trying to make it so that the host "db" (or db.buildreferrals.com) points to 65.119.108.130 (as specified in /etc/hosts) when I look it up from the machine. But when I actually look up that host, it gives a different address. (The DNS will eventually point 'db' to the correct host, but I need it to work in /etc/hosts for efficiency reasons.)
