Could someone please tell me how to add a nameserver to A/UX? It's a pain to add everyplace into /etc/hosts... I'm sure this is simple to do, but can't find it anywhere. Also, is there a way to make the THINK C debugger work under A/UX 2.0? I'm using THINK C 4.0.4 (updated from the 7.0b1 CD). Thank you very much, Leonard Kleinow kleinow@caen.engin.umich.edu

There is a line "net0:2:off:/etc/named /etc/named.boot....." that you change the "off" to "wait" as it indicates. Then you read the named man page for setting up your /etc/named.boot file. However, if you are in the same situation as I, you want to use the name server on someone elses machine and let them maintain the hosts file. In this case you create /etc/resolv.conf to look like this: domain ?????.????? nameserver ??.??.??.?? the man page on resolver(4) tells more. -- Have a day,
