|
reads the
|
||
|
.I domain
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.I search
|
||
|
directives to allow lookups of short names relative to the domains
|
||
|
specified. The
|
||
|
.I domain
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.I search
|
||
|
directives override one another. If more that one instance of either

||
|
.I domain

||
|
or

||
|
.I search
|
||
|
directives is specified, the last occurrence wins. For more information,
