Try `nslookup - 192.48.153.1` and then type "ls sgi.com" to see if
anyone has made `named` work in IRIX 4.0.5.

I sympathize with your frustration, but it is always wise to check the
too common "logic" of "I can't make it work, so it never worked."  Weak
programmers tend to make an analogous mistake, "thinking" along the
lines of "I don't understand how it works, so it never worked, and so
it must be rewritten from scratch without understanding what the other
code was trying to do."
