And what, exactly, pray tell, do those august
personages ("the list police") preach? Something tells
me that what you jocularly term "my fixed address
methods" are the exact ones I have been using since lo
those many aeons ago when I sat down to read a
hardcopy printout of the ifconfig man page.
you will need to edit /etc/resolv.conf after nuking
the softlink that it is and creating a real file,
saying "order hosts,dns" on the first line, and the
address of the local dns resolver as "nameserver" on
the next line.
Ditto above. Been doing it that way for aeons. Is
there a new way? Changing resolv.conf to a softlink
merits harsh punishment. Where's my PPK?
AND, I am going to have to make sure that my next $100
Staples refurb box boots one of the *bsd's! This is
incredible!
