The message below makes sense. By the same token, would the following configuration have problems resolving?
67.104.173.198 vistasrv 127.0.0.1 localhost 38.113.0.251 vistasrv Does VistA require resolving to "vistasrv", or will it resolve to another name (such as "worksrv")? As in the following: 67.104.173.198 vistasrv 127.0.0.1 localhost 38.113.0.251 worksrv And: We use DNS for WWW only, not our LAN. Does that impact the above configuration? I think I am starting to get it.
