What should I look for in /etc/hosts.  Also the main reason I'm doing
this, is to because lin-neighborhood, xfsamba, and nautilus all seem to
look up network computer names through netbios, and netbios isn't
working.  I can look at anyone on the network through IP address.  The
problem comes in domain name resolution.  I can try binding my ip
address, but if I shut down the outside network, it still has problems. 
I found at the ip address smbclient trys to resolve to, is
anything.com.  ????
