Thanks to Don Rainwater (rainwatr@ucunix.san.uc.edu) and Michael
Crawford (escher@apple.com) my resolvers are working.  My problem was
that the NCSA Telnet uses its own resolver and it is configured in the
config.tel file in the system folder.  I also learned of HyperFTP
(available from sumex-aim in the comm directory) which uses MacTCP's
resolver and allows FTP access to the internet from a Mac.  The
HyperCard NewsReader 1.2.1 stack (available from apple.com in the
pub/dts/mac/stack directory) also works.  HyperFTP and the NewsReader
use MacTCP's domainname resolver.
