Hello,

On PPP there is an argument like "usepeerdns"
for, obviously, using a peer's DNS.

Is there something similar for LAN connections?

It occurs to me that if I can ping a server by
name on PPP, then I ought to be able to by LAN.
Can I? How do I?

Saw much about DNS and BIND in the DOCs. But
I don't really want to set up my own DNS server.
I just want to use the one on the LAN at work.
There must be a way....

Thanks,
