Help Me..

I'm running couple of sun machines. I don't have DNS server. NT machines have DNS server. How can I give DNS name to the system. Is it possible just by creating /etc/defaultdomain? Insted of pinging the system xyz I want it be xyz.com. How can I acheive this?

Edit the /etc/resolv.conf file and add the domain name and the nameserver IP address to point to the DNS server that should work. And next time you have a post please put something descriptive in the subject line. "Help Me" doesn't tell us what help you need.

Your /etc/resolv.conf file should look something like this:

search mydomain.com
nameserver 10.10.5.20 #primary DNS server
nameserver 10.10.5.21 #secondary DNS server

Hope this helps. d3funct

The software required `Windows 95 or better', so I installed Linux.
