pathname where < win95/98 path> is the path to the Windows files:
<win95/98 path>\system\regserv.dat
14. Add to the hosts file the names and IP addresses of servers with adapters to be
managed over the network.

file under this pathname where <winnt path> is the path to the
Windows files:
<winnt path>\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Managing Servers Over the Network
HP recommends that all servers and clients that manage
integrated HP NetRAID controllers or HP NetRAID-1M
or 2M adapters over the network have the same hosts
file content. This prevents problems in resolving server
names and addresses.
