I really have read them. The problem is not in our DOMAINSFILE.
Rather, our CACHEFILE has -- due to my late-arrival into the Wonderful
World of HOSTALIAS and REGEXP (thanks in no small part to our
fellow-user, Jamie Slee) -- become infested with the aforementioned
offensive entries.
So, the REAL question is: if/how can I purge them? or, must I just
"eat if" and either live with 'em or toss the 40-day-old (of no small
Biblical import) CACHEFILE and begin anew, albeit with a "clean slate"?
TIA!
