I am having a small problem setting up a tcp connection and I wonder 
if some nice person out there could lend some assistance.

I have a subscription to PSI.COM. When I connect to the service (via 
dialup slip) and establish a net connection the nameserver on the network
grabs hold of the net and overides my /etc/hosts file.

I was wondering if I set up a local nameserver if that would cure this
problem.

If this would work great, but I cannot figure out how to set it up



Thanks
