SYNOPSIS
     /usr/sysadm/privbin/configResolver [-r hostResOrder]

DESCRIPTION
     configResolver configures the host resolution order used by various

     by the Set Up and Start NIS, Add Host, and Modify Network Settings tasks
     to configure the host resolution order.


OPTIONS
     -r hostResOrder
          A list specifying the ordering of host lookup services used by

          their keywords are Sun's network information service (nis), DNS
          (dns) and /etc/hosts (files). The keywords are separated by white
          space or a slash (/). configResolver sets the hosts attribute with
          the given <hostResOrder> in /etc/nsswitch.conf.
