However, this may be prohibitted by RESOLVER configuration statement GLOBALTCPIPDATA which will force a set of non-overridable TCPDATA defs. The stack will still go through that "standard" search, but anything trying to override the values in the GLOBALTCPIPDATA dataset will be ignored. And if you supply a GLOBALTCPIPDATA, RESOLVER configuration defs *must* be included there or they will take the IBM defaults. Those non- overridable statements are DomainOrigin/Domain NSInterAddr/NameServer NSPortAddr – ResolveVia ResolverTimeOut ResolverUDPRetries Search SortList If GLOBALTCPIPDATA is included in your implementation, there is no way to override the list of name servers. And if LOOKUP DNS is also included in GLOBALTCPIPDATA your local host files will not be read. (Most shops will probably have the default LOOKUP DNS LOCAL which uses the host files if the search of name servers was unproductive.)
