HOST TABLES
Copied /etc/host to /home/shared
The file was made when the network was set-up and looks like this:
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain linux
192.168.123.2 local.duxcw.lan duxcw
192.168.123.1 linux.WORKGROUP.lan linux
I edited it (the one in /etc/shared) to look like this (which you can further
edit and use directly):
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.123.2 local.duxcw.lan duxcw
192.168.123.1 linux.WORKGROUP.lan linux
... for name to IP resolution--so you can browse to local.duxcw.lan entering
duxcw in the browser instead of http://192.168.123.2. This file should be copied
with the same name (and no extension; e.g., .txt) to C:\windows\ on the Windows
9x/Me computers and C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\ on Windows NT, 2000, and
XP computers.
The host tables have been installed.
