>Some computers don't have a DNS entry, that is, there is no DNS
server that give it an Internet name. You'd normally have to refer to such
computers by their IP address.</P
><P
>However, this list lets you enter name aliases for such hosts. It
works like a private name server - aliases entered here will map to their
corresponding IP addresses whenever they are used. For instance, entering
the alias "cube" for the IP address "10.10.10.1" will let you use "cube" in
your applications when referring to the computer with this IP.</P
><P
>You can have several aliases for one IP. Use spaces to separate
them in the alias entry field.</P
><P
>Remember that the aliases will only work on your local computer.
Others will have to add similar aliases on their computers if they want to
use them.</P
><P
>You'll usually have a special IP address here - "127.0.0.1". This
is a reference to your computer, from your computer. It is also called the
"loopback address".</P
