# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.

# space.

# lines or following the machine name denoted by a ‘#’ symbol.

# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
# localhost name resolution is handle within DNS itself.
