DNS
/etc/hosts
This is the first file that the Linux system reads to resolve the host name and IP address.
/etc/resolv.conf
This is the most important file that you need to edit when using DNS for the other programs. For example, before you using #ntpdate time.nist.goc to update the system time, you will need to add the DNS server address to the file. Ask your network administrator which DNS server address you should use. The DNS server’s IP address is specified with the “nameserver” command. For example, add the following line to /etc/resolv.conf if the DNS server’s IP address is 168.95.1.1:
nameserver 168.95.1.1
10.120.53.100 – PuTTY
root@Moxa:/etc# cat resolv.conf
#
#resolv.conf This file is the resolver configuration file
#See resolver(5).
#
#nameserver 192.168.1.16 nameserver 168.95.1.1 nameserver 140.115.1.31 nameserver 140.115.236.10 root@Moxa:/etc# 
/etc/nsswitch.conf
This file defines the sequence to resolve the IP address by using /etc/hosts file or /etc/resolv.conf.
