!Internet/files/Hosts

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

#
# Host Database
#
# This file should contain information regarding the known hosts on
# the accessible internet.  For each host a single line should be
# present with the following information:
#
#     official host name
#     Internet address
#     aliases
#
# Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters.
#  A ``#'' indicates the beginning of a comment; characters up to the
# end of the line are not interpreted by routines which search the file.
#
# Network addresses are specified in the conventional dot notation, a.b.c.d.
# Host names may contain any printable character other than a field delimiter,
# newline, or comment character.
#
# Examples:
#
# 1.0.0.1                 ahost
# 2.0.0.1                 anotherhost
# 2.0.0.2                 agateway
# 3.0.0.1                 remotehost

# Do not alter the loopback entry
#
127.0.0.1        loopback localhost loghost
