A.2.5 Host

File

The HOST File is used by Microsoft

TCP/IP for windows NT. It contains the mapping

of IP addresses to host names. If UINETMAN does not run in the services, it may be
necessary to add a new line to the HOST file. The path to the HOST file is:

Path: My Computer\C:\Winnt\system32\drivers\etc

Open the file labeled Hosts with the Notepad Program. Refer to Section A.1.1,
Figure A-3, the TCP/IP Address for the computer is located in the IP Address window.

The IP address and computer name should be added to the end of the host file.

Note: After adding the new line as shown, save the Host File prior to closing.
