Hi Mike,

If you just make some change to /etc/resolv.conf, you don't have to do anything. The change is effective as soon as the changes are saved and you exit from the vi. You don't have to restart inetd or reboot the server.

Hope this helps.

No need to do anything if you have modified just resolv.conf file.
