HP/UX 8 and hosts vs DNS

    HPUX 8 has smit, doesn't it ? 
 Do you mean "sam"?

 I thought "smit(ty)" was AIX's counterpart to HP-UX's "sam".

 Yes SMIT is an AIX system management utility first introduced with AIX 
 for RS/6000 Ver 3, start with HPUX 10 HP did however include Logical 
 Volume Manager (LVM) which was also introduced in AIX 3.0 
sam is in HP/UX 8 also. However, it doesn't seem to control this function.

I'll try /etc/nsswitch.conf anyway, since it won't hurt anything.
