Why did /etc/hosts not appear in the output of Martin's find command?

Scott,
what I meant with this ping example is that domain name provided
during the installation(lab.net in my case) seems to be in use only in
one place which is the /etc/network/interfaces file "dns-search" line.
This means that if I execute "host www", it asks DNS server for A

Hi,
during the installation of Debian, one is asked for "domain name".
Only place where it seems to be used is for completing the FQDN's:
root@localhost:~# find / \( \( -path "/proc" -o -path "/sys" \) -a
-prune \) -o \( -type f -a -exec grep -iH "lab.net" {} \; \)
