Thank you

Routing Table on my target is,

# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use 
Iface
192.168.5.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 
eth0
127.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
default         192.168.5.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 
eth0

and my /etc/hosts is as followings,
# cat hosts

127.0.0.1       localhost
192.168.5.60    hyper3.site hyper3
209.131.36.158  www.yahoo.com

and my /etc/resolv.conf is as followings
search abc.net
nameserver 4.2.2.1

But I don't understand libc relate things, could you tell
me more about this?
Thanks in advance. :)

                       Jason,
