As was explained later on in this thread (and, I presume, would have been explained to Gene previously in other threads), you set that search order in /etc/nsswitch.conf, not in /etc/resolv.conf. 'man nsswitch.conf' documents the file, but all you should probably need to do is look at the existing file, and tweak the 'hosts' line appropriately. If what you want is "search /etc/hosts, then search DNS, then give up", the 'hosts' line you want is: hosts: files dns There are additional options that might make sense, but that's the most basic form. My own nsswitch.conf hosts entry, which IIRC is fairly bog-standard except maybe for a bit of reordering, reads: hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4 which, according to my understanding, simply adds a few additional types of DNS lookup into the series before giving up. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
