Hi,

I'm trying to get my FreeBSD system to resolve localhost into 127.0.0.1, but 
unfortunately it doesn't work. It appears the resolver is never reading from 
/etc/hosts, where I have this line:
127.0.0.1 localhost

Here's a sample output of what I get when I try to resolve the name:
$ nslookup localhost
;; Got recursion not available from 91.90.24.250, trying next server
Server:         8.8.8.8
Address:        8.8.8.8#53
 
** server can't find localhost: NXDOMAIN
 
What am I missing?

Kind regards,
Martin
