I have just set up a new Sparc2 and connected it to the Internet.  I have
set up the named.* files.  I can't get it to interpret names dynamically;
even though named is up and running, storing many names in its cache, I
get a "host unknown" error every time.  What's the matter?  Do I have to
get BIND and recompile everything, even though my machine came with named
already installed?  (SunOS 4.1.1)
