Hi, Julio,

Windows doesn't have a nsswitch.conf equivalent. Windows hosts file is equivalent to UNIX /etc/hosts. Imagine Windows has a nswitch.conf like this:

hosts: files dns

But it's missing other lines such as protocoles, services... in this file.

This topic is much less off-topic than some others. Thanks for reminding everybody.

Mladen,

The equivalent of nsswitch.conf on Win2K is the "hosts" file in winnt\system32\drivers\etc. You'd probably say: the /etc directory in M$ ...But, well this is way off
the topic we are dealing with. Like Jared said, we need to focus ;)
