The hosts file was never the preferred place to map addresses. The proper place to put it in OS X is /machines in Netinfo.

In the terminal, you can do nidump hosts / to get the contents in the format of a hosts file and niload hosts / to load a hosts file into netinfo.

For as long as I remember, one could edit a small text file called "hosts" in order to map a web-address string to an IP address.


It was there all the way through 10.3.9, and under OS 9, there was a little button for it in the TCP/IP control panel.

Under Tiger it seems to be gone.

And I need it(!).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
