I thought I read somewhere that you need to make an /etc/svc.conf file.
Tru64(Digital UNIX, OSF/1)'s resolver looks for /etc/svc.conf.

I could be way off here, so correct me if I am.

...Maybe svc.conf should contain something like:
aliases=local
group=local
hosts=local,bind,yp
netgroup=local
networks=local
passwd=local
protocols=local
rpc=local
services=local

where the hosts line is the important one.
