Hi there.
it seems that my 5.0-Release box,
when trying to resolve a name to the associated IP it only
tries the DNSs listed in resolv.conf, and never tries /etc/hosts
Also.. where is /etc/host.conf gone? I tried to create one, but it
doesn't help.
Here is some more info on my configuration:
(I rebuilt the kernel but this behaviour was present in GENERIC, too)
-bash-2.05b# uname -a
FreeBSD jupiter.noonlights.net 5.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE #0: Wed May 28

-bash-2.05b# cat /etc/rc.conf

-bash-2.05b# cat /etc/hosts

-bash-2.05b# host localhost.noonlights.net

-bash-2.05b# nslookup localhost

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1
-bash-2.05b# host jupiter
Host not found.
-bash-2.05b# host jupiter.noonlights.net
Host not found.
What's wrong?
Thank you.
