I want to make my OS return 127.0.0.1 on google-analytics.com and ad.doubleclick.net to speed up the work with Sourceforge.
I put 127.0.0.1 google-analytics.com 127.0.0.1 ad.doubleclick.net into /etc/hosts and checked that /etc/resolv.conf contains lookup file bind According to man resolv.conf this should result in /etc/hosts having priority over the DNS system. However, it simply doesn't work. Both Firefox and the "host" command behave as if I didn't do anything. Why doesn't it work when man resolv.conf says it should? CL<
