[comp.sys.sun] Sun and DNS

FRUTIG%BRLNCC@cunyvm.cuny.edu (06/05/91)

Hello,

	I have just finished to set up my Sun workstation as a DNS server
	but, when logged on this Sun, and using telnet, ftp, etc I get an
	"unkown host" error message ! (these applications are not using the
	resolver functions, in order to translate from host name to host
	address) I am NOT running NIS at the server. Is this a problem ?
	I know, via nslookup, that the server is well configured.

	Any help would be GREAT ! Thanks in advance.

PS: 1. I am NOT subscribed to sunspots list yet, so please E-MAIL me.

    2. I have heard something about a list called sunnet-manager (I guess).
       Someone out there could point me its location ?
