I'd check with the mailing archive on www.freebsd.org; I'm trying to think of the name of the resolver they use (becuase that'd make it easier for you to find the message), but I can't, sorry. > Alternatively (and this would be even better, since I don't want to have > to maintain two copies of /etc/resolv.conf) is it possible to point the > compatability engine at another part of the disk, say > /linux/etc/resolv.conf? This already happens; it's /compat/linux -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 041-122-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] "Who does BSD?"
