Hello (e-mail address removed),
Check out c:\winnt\drivers\etc\hosts file. The file has no extension, open
it with notepad and you can edit it if it is the one you use.
Best regards

I had put the following three lines in C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc
\hosts and C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\resolv.conf in my win 2000
client (not server) computer.
search powah.com
nameserver 172.20.10.20
nameserver 172.16.2.14
However, it still does not work (the hostname "tulip" does not resolve
to a proper IP addresses).
C:\>ping tulip
Unknown host tulip.
C:\>ping tulip.powah.com
