I am one of the many getting this error.

Only the two files you mention in the directory
No reference to resolv.conf in either of them.
in the /usr/man/man5 directory I have a resolv.conf.5, resolv.conf.5.gz and
resolver.5.gz
They exist.  This did start with the OS 2 update

-------------------

I checked my RaQ4, using SSH & Putty. In /usr/man/man5/ I found many files
but the 3 below looked strange.

lrwxrwxrwx  1  root  root       10  Nov 20 10.24 resolv.conf -> resolver.5
lrwxrwxrwx  1  root  root       13  Feb  2  18.34
resolv.conf.gz ->resolver.5.gz
-r--r--r--        1  root  root  2983  Jan 31  2001 resolver5.gz

Please Note: On the first line the text "resolv.conf -> resolver.5" had a
red background. Does this make sense, or has anybody found out anything yet.

Declan.
