hmm. that seems a bit more involved to me than what I'm looking for. I don't control the remote name servers in question.
When you type, e.g. ping www.yahoo.com, it isn't too many steps away from doing a lookup based off resolv.conf. Hell, in fact it is *one* step AFAICT, after hostname lookup via /etc/hosts. I mean, really, how complicated is control-flow logic? I can stuff all the hosts in question that I need into /etc/hosts for lookup, but that seems pretty barbaric, and it would be nice to have a solution that could be done locally rather than requiring network support.
