I usually double check /etc/resolv.conf as well, just to be safe.

I'm going with /etc/nsswitch.conf. It's the standard location for name service configuration on many Unix-based systems, so it makes sense for NetBSD too.

Hmm, /etc/resolv.conf sounds like it could be the right answer, but I'll double-check the NetBSD documentation just to be sure.

I'm not sure, but I think it's E) /etc/resolv.conf because it contains DNS resolver information.

I'm pretty sure it's /etc/nsswitch.conf, that's where I've seen the name resolution settings on other Unix-like systems.
