-<para>Here will be set up basic networking now that all the necessary
|
|
|
-software has been installed. There isn't all that much to do, really,
|
|
|
-just creating a basic <filename>/etc/hosts</filename> file, and downloading
|
|
|
-some high-quality network information files.</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<para>The first step is to create <filename>/etc/hosts</filename>. This file
|
|
|
-contains information allowing resolution of host names to IP addresses.
|
|
|
-Create a very basic one (we'll make a better one later, but Perl needs it now
|
|
|
-for doing some tests) with the following command:</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<screen><userinput>echo "127.0.0.1 $(hostname) localhost" > /etc/hosts</userinput></screen>
|
|

|
|
|
-<para>Now unpack the Lfs-Utils tarball again, as we're going to copy two
|
|
|
-necessary files from it. One is <filename>/etc/services</filename>, which is
|
|
|
-used to resolve service numbers to human-readable names, and the other is
|
|
|
-<filename>/etc/protocols</filename>, which does the same for protocol numbers.
|
|
|
-Copy them with the following command after you have entered the Lfs-Utils
|
|
|
-directory:</para>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-<screen><userinput>cp -f etc/{services,protocols} /etc</userinput></screen>
