Modifying the DNS resolver configuration file

The DNS resolver daemon /etc/resolv.conf configuration file can be modified in the POSIX shell under $TSOS or $SYSROOT using EDT. The syntax of the entries must be stringently adhered to when editing the configuration file; otherwise, DNS queries may produce undesirable results.

Changes in the configuration file only take effect after a DNS resolver daemon new start or restart (see "Startup and shutdown of the DNS resolver").
