Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$ This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!) avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long. Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been insane otherwise. 1997-01-14 07:20:47 +00:00			`# $FreeBSD$`
Added a default host.conf (gethostnamadr() name resolver) which declares to resolve all names via bind first and then try /etc/hosts. 1993-07-29 18:30:36 +00:00			`# Default is to use the nameserver first`
			`bind`
			`# If that doesn't work, then try the /etc/hosts file`
			`hosts`
Added comment about how to enable NIS hostname resolution. 1993-11-07 01:02:57 +00:00			`# If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line`
