named now works!

[Eric A. Pearce]

     I now have our 4D's running as caching secondary nameservers.  
     Thanks go to Jesse Rendelman at the SGI Hotline for fixing my
     resolv.conf file.  The problem I had was that nfs mounts and
     exportfs would fail in the boot process, as named was not running
     yet and /etc/hosts was being ignored.   The current setup will
     work as long as you have the hosts you want to nfs mount and 
     export to in /etc/hosts.  (I'm not running YP)

     /usr/etc/resolv.conf:

     # Domain name resolver configuration file
     #
     domain bu.edu
     # this will look at /etc/hosts
     nameserver 0 
     # ourselves
     nameserver 127.0.0.1
     # campus primary
     nameserver 128.197.2.6
     #

     /usr/etc/named.d/loopback.rev:

     ;       @(#) 1.0 loopback.rev BU -- bucrf1 (ONLY)
