The IP address should begin in the first column,
n
followed by the corresponding computer name
(entries in the LMHOSTS file are not case-
sensitive).
The address and the computer name should be
n
separated by at least one space or tab.
The number sign (#) character is typically used to
n
mark the start of a comment. However, this
character can also be used to designate special
keywords, as described in this section.
The keywords listed in the following table can be used
in the LMHOSTS file. Notice, however, that LAN
Manager 2.x treats these keywords as comments.
