I'd think a new resolv.conf option rather than using something like an empty "search" specification would be better. If anyone knows if Solaris or other systems have invented such a mechanism, now would be a good time to know so we can try to be configuration file compatible. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
