Use different DNS servers for different domains
Authored by: sjk on Mar 03, '06 01:01:52PM

Umm, your iMac wouldn't boot without the /etc (really /private/etc) directory. :-)

Certain system support folders (including /etc) are hidden from Finder by default. You can use "Go > Go To Folder..." (command-shift-G) to bring up a dialog and enter the path to a hidden folder you want to open. Or use Terminal.

Making modifications in system folders without adequately understanding the consequences (which unfortunately are often overlooked in "procedure-style" hints) can be risky. You might want to get some general familiarity with the contents of hidden directories before changing things that could disrupt the integrity of your system and/or network.
