Configuring hosts information for replication servers
If you are not using Domain Name Service (DNS) to identify IP addresses and system names, you do need to configure the hosts file on each replication server to add the IP addresses and system names for all other replication servers in the domain.
The hosts file is in the following
location.
| Operating System | File |
|---|---|
| UNIX | /etc/hosts |
| Windows | %WINDIR%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts |
Important: Leave a blank line
at the end of the hosts file on Windows.
For example, your hosts file
might look like the following:
192.168.0.1 ny.usa.com
192.168.0.2 tokyo.japan.com
192.168.0.3 rome.italy.com
192.168.0.4 perth.australia.com
