root# uname -a
FreeBSD 3s1.com 4.8-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE #6: Tue May 31 23:58:57 EDT 2005     david@3s1.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/tracker  i386

I am not sure what hosts.conf or nsswitch.conf are about. I have never
needed them before. I will have to google them;

root# man hosts.conf
No manual entry for hosts.conf
root# man nsswitch.conf
No manual entry for nsswitch.conf
root#
