This file configures the name resolver, specifying the
|
|
address of your name server (if any) and your domain name.
|
|
Your domain name is your fully-qualified hostname (if you're a
|
|
registered machine on the Internet, for example), with the hostname
|
|
chopped off. That is, if your full hostname is <tt>loomer.vpizza.com</tt>,
|
|
your domain name is just <tt>vpizza.com</tt>.
|
|
<P>
|
|
For example, if your machine is <tt>goober.norelco.com</tt>, and has a
|
|
nameserver at the address 128.253.154.5, your <tt>/etc/resolv.conf</tt> would
|
|
look like:
|
|
<P><TT> <PRE>domain norelco.com
|
|
nameserver 127.253.154.5
|
|
</PRE> <P></TT>
|
|
You can specify more than one nameserver---each must have a
|
|
<tt>nameserver</tt> line of its own in <tt>resolv.conf</tt>.
