I installed Netscape 3.0, and it works as root (i.e. it
can find hosts and all that neat stuff).

However, when running as an ordinary user, it is unable
to locate anything.  It complains about not being able
to resolve hostnames.

I can ping the mentioned hostnames as an ordinary user,
the problem appears to be limited to Netscape.

Anybody else had this problem?  Is there an easy solution?
