SUMMARY: Bind 9.2.2 on Solaris 9

Hi Guys,

Thanks to everyone for their reply.  Special thanks to Lars Hecking, Gary
Carr, Alan Halachmi, Paul Greidanus and Bill Williams for their reply.
Windows has a similar option as the unix /etc/resolv.conf (search
chamkila.org) under the DNS option of the tcp/ip settings for the nic.. I
set the "Append these DNS suffixxes (in order):" option to my domain name
and everything is working as expected.. Again, thanks to everyone for their
quick response.

Simran H.
