Then i issue this command modload -e linux_init /lkm/linux_mod.o. This makes linux version of Doom to run on FreeBSD. Then i tried to run the Linux version of netscape. The reason being that it supports java. Netscape runs but it is not able to find the nameserver. it says resolv+: "bind" is an invalid keyword resolv+: "hosts" is an invalid keyword due to which it is not able to find the nameserver. But if i specify the Ip address of a host then it works. I even got java working. The errors are from host.conf file. Which contains the bind and hosts entry. Is there a way to make netscape to look into the nameserver. Any help ??? thanx bala@cst.com.au
