[reSIProcate] DNS feature request

Hi Cullen,
 
BTW:  It looks like there is a way to change the ares precedence (DNS vs
hosts file).  If you put the following line into /etc/resolv.conf:
lookup f b
you are telling ares to look in host (f)ile before DNS(b) servers.  (I have
no idea why it's 'b' and not 'd'.)

Cool - thanks. I tried with a domain that existed and did not realize it
tried DNS *first* then would fall back to hosts.

Hi Cullen, 
I tried it out - and ares does seem to look in /etc/hosts if it fails to 
find the entry via a DNS lookup.  It will look in /etc/inet/hosts if you 
have ETC_INET defined.  

Looking at this I'm thinking of making the hosts file location for Win32 
more Windows friendly.  To do this I need to lookup the hosts file location 
from the registry.

Right now Areas does not look in /etc/hosts which means you can't type in 
manual overrides for stuff. This is often a real haste in testing 
situations. Would be nice if if it looked in /etc/hosts for A and AAAA type 
stuff.
