  the Apollo Q&A etc....

I just checked, and the JPL name server (jpl-mil.jpl.nasa.gov) has the
correct address for dabo.  It's 141.211.168.73 in case you can't look it up
for some reason.

I've added the following to the Q&A file, since it took me a while to figure
this out from the unusually poor documentation (none of the man pages point
to nmconfig!):

Question:  How do I enable IP name service?

Answer:

Uncomment the 'nmconfig' lines in /etc/rc.local.  Create the empty file
/etc/daemons/nmconfig.  Create the file /etc/resolv.conf.  It should look
like this:

domain  domain-name
nameserver      server1
nameserver      server2
nameserver	server3

where domain-name is your domain name, and server1..n are the numeric IP
addresses of your name servers.  You can have as many as you want, it tries
them in the order listed.  Here's a sample file for dabo.ifs.umich.edu (IP
addresses are fictional):

domain  ifs.umich.edu
nameserver      10.3.27.4
nameserver      10.1.27.4
nameserver	10.1.33.2
