Does DNS work for you at all? I can't get it to work and never have been
able to, with any Digital UNIX app.
BTW, I installed it with dpkg, creating the .deb with alien -d -c but you
have to run dpkg from / since Compaq's install scripts unpack a tarball
that has files in it without absolute pathnames.
