I'm using good ol' HP-UX with ascii text files of data for DNS. I really don't
see why it isn't worthwhile to develop some really easy, error checked,
programs to setup tcp/ip. It is very easy to err, even if you understand the
issues and know what you want. If MPE programmers had made a DNS, I wouldn't
have to worry that I typed "PRT" instead of "PTR". Of course, NMMGR isn't
exactly the easiest program to use, either...
