I've set up a minimal bind installation using yast on 10.2 which seems to
do the job quite well for DNS servicing my local network.
Now I want to add a host name, two actually, 1) to resolve to a specific
public IP in another city, and one to point to an internal machine on
my network.
In the past, putting these in the hosts file of the server running bind would
work, but this seems broken in my setup.
The resolution is set up through /etc/nsswitch.conf. If you use "files" in
addition to dns, then you should be able to use your hosts file for dns
resolution.
