Why does the bind package require an /etc/resolv.conf file? Isn't that used only by the resolver lib? And the resolver lib is part of Cygwin 1.7 anyway, or in the minires package for Cygwin 1.5. Minires/Cygwin 1.7 don't need a resolv.conf file, so why does bind?!? Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
