How to configure DNS ?

Thanks , but i want another thing. That is : On my network there is a machine that runs DNS server. And i wanna use his service by showing my machine use IP of DNS server to resolve hostname.

For example on WIndows XP, i assigned the following paramaters:

+Preferred DNS server: 85.23.192.2

+Alternate DNS server:195.131.52.130

How to assign these parameters to networking interface on Solaris?

Thanks alot !!!

I have configured the following files:

1) resolv.conf

nameserver 85.235.192.2

nameserver 195.131.52.130

2) nsswitch.conf has a line:

hosts : files dns

and then i restart interface:

# ifconfig nfo0 down

#ifconfig nfo0 up

but it doesn't work.

#nslookup www.sun.com

request timeout , no server is not reachable

I have a note: in dierectory /etc not exist <resolv.conf> file, and i made it myself.

Please help me ! Thanks a lot !

... and are you going to keep that information a secret?

You came to this public discussion forum and asked for help.

It appears that responses pointed toward an eventual solution.

Would'n it be nice for others to also learn by simply reading the discusion thread?

Then they would not need to post their own version of the same question, just to get to the same result.

... teach, don't leech.
