My example is only setting up the server so that it works with our company's DNS nameservers. It's not a how-to for setting up the server to act as a DNS server.

edit /etc/resolv.conf:
add lines:
domain example.hp.com
search example.hp.com
nameserver 123.123.12.1

cp nsswitch.files nsswitch.conf
edit /etc/nsswitch.conf (include this line)
hosts: files [NOTFOUND=continue TRYAGAIN=continue] dns

edit /etc/hosts
add nameserver IP and dns name
for example:) 123.123.12.1 example.hp.com

On another server do a nslookup hostname and nslookup IP address to verify

Are you trying to configure a DNS server or a
client? Believe it or not, the details of
the configuration may depend on what you're
trying to configure.

Huh?

Have you looked at the HP-UX documentation?
