First thanks to Caleb Walker for responding to my earlier e-mail about this problem. Unfortunatly I'm still running in to troube when trying to telnet to a host using the hostname as a parameter. If I use the IP of a machine telnet works like a charm. IF I use any hostname, even if it is "localhost" I get the message <the hostname I used>: No address associated with hostname All the other clients that I use can use hostname's fine, ie ftp irc etc. here is what I have in the following files (the most basic of setup) resolv.conf ----------- domain vtacs.com nameserver 208.138.112.20 nameserver 208.138.115.20 ----------- hosts ----- 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.vtacs.com ::1 localhost localhost.vtacs.com e115025.vtacs.com 208.138.115.25 e115025.vtacs.com ----- Thanks for any help you could offer.
