I find this hard to believe, but that's what my local sales rep tells me... Needless to say, I don't enjoy editing the host files on a daily basis. If you are in an internet-connected environment, I wouldn't recommend buying such a product from *any* vendor until this is fixed! Thank god the BIND distribution drops (kinda) easily in to 4.0. --Andy
