[ILUG] Sendmail and WINS

[ILUG] Sendmail and WINS

Folks,

I'm trying to configure a Fedora Core 3 system using sendmail.  The
problem is that the customer only uses WINS, not DNS for name resolution. 
This means that every time I try and send something via sendmail (i.e.
/usr/bin/sendmail -v foo at bar.com) I get a host unknown error....

How do I configure sendmail to *not* try and do host lookups via DNS? 
There doesn't seem to be anything in the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file that
pops out at me.

Thanks,

Braun Brelin
