I now have our 4D's running as caching secondary nameservers. Thanks go to Jesse Rendelman at the SGI Hotline for fixing my resolv.conf file. The problem I had was that nfs mounts and exportfs would fail in the boot process, as named was not running yet and /etc/hosts was being ignored. The current setup will work as long as you have the hosts you want to nfs mount and export to in /etc/hosts.
