Greetings All, I am running FreeBSD 4.10 stable. I connect to the internet via dialup so I have an entries in my /etc/hosts for all my local machines and I have an entry in my /etc/resolv.conf for my isp's dns server. when I am not connected to my isp and I try to ssh to a local machine from a local mahine it takes a "long" time to connect. I susspect the reason is because it is trying to hit the dns server first from my isp. From what I understand it should hit the hosts file first according to the following setup. Can anyone exlain how I can fix my problem? or explain why my current configuration is incorrect?
/etc/host.conf # First try the /etc/hosts file hosts # Now try the nameserver next. bind thanks much, Brian _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
