[SunHELP] Help! Having dns resolution problems

[Bran Tregare]

I built solaris 8 out onto a sparc 20 with Ross 90 in it, I think I may 
have been so tired  when I did this that I said "none" to name resolution :(

  I have manually created resolv.conf, in.named is running at boot and I 
can run nslookup and do DNS queries.  I ahve added the default route (my 
router's IP) and all that is working, however, Netscrape and Ping, tracert, 
etc refuse to resolve Human friendly Addresses, they work if i put the IP 
address in ...

ping 199.164.144.15 works
ping www.rit.com fails with "unknown host www.rit.com" :( error... should I 
just bag it and do a full reinstall? :(:(:(:(
