[rescue] DNS on SunOS 4.1.4

[Alexander Jacocks]

WRT NFSv2 on modern Linux, you can reference the discussion here:

https://forum.vcfed.org/index.php?threads/nfs-v2-support-in-a-modern-unix-or-unix-like.1247360/

The last post, by me, links to the data about the current state of NFSv2 in
Linux kernel 6.x (disabled by default) and the state in the userland
utilities (removed).
