    I use "host -a -w localhost" in my rc files immediately after starting
    the nameserver.  When I get output from host, I then go on to do the
    interesting stuff such as starting NFS and sendmail.
     
    You can get host from tut.cis.ohio-state.edu:pub/nameserver/host.[1c].

What do I need to link this with to make it work?

Am I right in assuming that this will be less of a problem if I put my
local reverse mappings closer to the top of /etc/named.boot?  I had my
local IN-ADDR.ARPA mappings below the seven domains (all parts of
SLB.COM) that I'm a secondary for.
