What is listed in /etc/resolv.conf , hosts/ipnodes in nsswitch.conf? > >I have attached the output from running 'snoop -v' when I tried running >the above telnet command. This is what I understand so far: > >1. ultra10 sends DNS query for www.somefakehost123.com to ISP's DNS server >2. DNS server responds with Name Error for www.somefakehost123.com >3. Then ultra10 sends a second query to DNS server asking for >www.somefakehost123.com.net (notice the .net at the end) Ah, I see, it's the nameserver in charge of com.net. >So it looks like something from this Solaris machine is sending requests >for .net domain names, and prepends the original domain name. Any comments? That depends on the configuration in nsswitch.conf; it shouldn't add the .net entry. You can fix the searchpath in /etc/resolv.conf.
