Basically In HP-UX host name resolution is done by i) NIS 2) /etc/hosts 3) DNS
In /etc/nsswitch.conf file should have the host resolution
Example is given below
### hosts: files dns nis ######
Above example will look first 1)/etc/hosts for the name resolution & DNS & NIS
In /etc/nsswitch.conf file should have the host resolution
Example is given below
### hosts: files dns nis ######
Above example will look first 1)/etc/hosts for the name resolution & DNS & NIS

Re: hosts resolution on hpux 11i
hi,
that file is not created by default, copy /etc/nsswitch.hp_defaults as /etc/nsswitch.conf and modify according to your preferences.
# cp -p /etc/nsswitch.hp_defaults /etc/nsswitch.conf
regards.
