tdadyslexia, the hosts file acts as a local dns and entries in it take priority over any you might look up from external dns. I hate saying dns servers, it's just plain wrong

Just in case anyone reading doesn't know where 127.0.01 is, it's home
As in the old techie joke 'there's no place like 127.0.0.1' or even
'there are 10 kinds of people in the world - those that understand binary and those that don't'
