#8320: Problems with ping and gethostbyname function.

Comment (by Ziusudra):
Adding the line {{{protocols local}}} to irs.conf fixes this. (I didn't
try the test program but it can be assumed to work.)
My complete irs.conf is:
{{{
hosts local continue
hosts dns
protocols local
}}}
With this, the hosts file Disreali attached to #7362 works as expected for
both Web+ and Terminal programs (ping/traceroute). (The MVPS hosts file
mentioned by Matt fails to resolve anything. I haven't yet looked into why
that may be.)
The irs.conf and hosts files both have to be in
{{{/boot/common/settings/network/}}}. A protocols file is not needed. No
other files need to be added/modified.
