but /etc/hosts is needed... if i rename the file and run the "script" it
does not resolve...

also, i was just curious whether it is resolv or resolve... so with it
named anything (ie. resolve.conf, resolv.conf, resolverename.conf, it
still
resolves the ip/dns... so... I'm concluding I really don't need the
resolv.conf at all... only the hosts file.

Very interesting!

So you just made an entry for your peer host in the hosts file?

:wq! PoC
