I want Exim to use only the resolver (i.e. ignore /etc/hosts), but don't want to alter the nsswitch.conf file in Solaris 2.
You need to rebuild Exim after fiddling with OS/os.h-SunOS5:
#define gethostbyaddr res_gethostbyaddr
#define gethostbyname res_gethostbyname
#define endhostent res_endhostent
#define endnetent res_endnetent
#define gethostent res_gethostent
#define getnetbyaddr res_getnetbyaddr
#define getnetbyname res_getnetbyname
#define getnetent res_getnetent
#define sethostent res_sethostent
#define setnetent res_setnetent
Note that -lnsl is still needed in the Makefile as it contains code used by the NIS lookup and also the inet_addr() function that Exim uses.
