Instructions for Snow Leopard?
I've been fiddling with this on 10.6, and the I've done this before on 10.4 and 10.5, so I'm pretty sure I'm not doing anything wrong as far as modifying the hosts file is concerned. I'm using OpenDNS, but the computer is supposed to check the local file first, so what gives? I can't imagine that Snow Leopard doesn't use a local DNS database, so has it given up on using the hosts file? I thought they just gave up NetInfo in 10.5, so why would they switch away from /etc/hosts now? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, as always.
Instructions for Snow Leopard
Okaaaaaaay. So apparently it does still work. It seems that my problem had something to do with the specific server I picked (ad2games.com), which somehow redirected to www.ad2games.com, which then loaded. Once I added www.ad2games.com to the hosts file, it stopped working. So the directions for 10.6 are apparently the same as they are for 10.5. Nice. |
