resolver, hamm and dynamic PPP

["Jeffery D. Collins" <jcollins@pacificnet.net>]

I'm having a problem getting the resolver to work properly.  Currently,
when the PPP
connection is down, the /etc/hosts file is used for hostname lookups.
When connected
to the network only the nameserver seems to be used - that is, executing
a command
such as "telnet" or "ping" on a name in the /etc/hosts file results in
an "unknown host" error.
Following are some of the pertinent config files.  BTW, this worked with

fine with bo before the upgrade to hamm.


----- /etc/resolv.conf  -----
domain pacificnet.net
nameserver 207.171.0.10
nameserver 198.186.216.130

----- /etc/host.conf  -----
order hosts,bind
multi on

---- /etc/networks ----
loopback        127.0.0.0


Thanks,

Jeff
