Is there a way to point the packet driver to a table similar to an /etc/hosts file. Our network doen't run bind, all of our nodes on our network are all in a /etc/hosts file. Any help would greatly be appreciated. +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+ | Bill Poitras | Polygen Corporation | {princeton mit-eddie | | (bill) | Waltham, MA USA | bu sunne}!polygen!bill | | | | bill@polygen.com | +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+
