Search Domains
Here at Sun I get a lot of e-mails with links containing abbreviated domain names to Sun intranet sites. For example:
http://sunweb.central
Which is intended to mean:
http://sunweb.central.sun.com
However, my browser tries to resolve it as:
http://www.sunweb.central
Which of course fails.
The solution is to simply add the following line to /etc/resolv.conf:
search sun.com
It's /etc/resolv.conf :-)

Corrected. Thanks for that catch.
