DNS configuration help

I'm trying to configure DNS on a AIX 5.4 machine and I just can't figure it out. The IBM guide doesn't work. Smit also doesn't work. I have no idea how to make this happen.

you try to configure AIX as DNS-server or client?

for client quite easy, vi /etc/resolv.conf

Code:
nameserver youdns1
nameserver yourdns2
.
.
domain yourdomain
search yourdomain yourseconddomain

in

/etc/netsvc.conf

enter the line
hosts=local4,bind4


and what is AIX 5.4?
