The name server is supposed to be a machine running the so-called "Domain
Name Server" protocols.  If your Sun doesn't support this (and nothing else
in your network does), you probably need to fall back to a static list of
hosts in your Macintosh.

I don't know what Telnet/FTP package you are using.  NCSA Telnet has a method
of listing the names of hosts (along with their IP addresses) in the custom
file.  HostAccess/TCPort uses a file (with the same format as /etc/hosts
on your sun) in the system folder (called "TCPort hosts").

Hope this helps.
