Well SIGHUP isn't a commmand par se... it's a unix termination signal
that u can send to the program to tell it to terminate.

again this is unix specific... in windows it's  in c:\windows\lmhosts
iirc. /etc/hosts hold the ip <-> name solution lijnes for machines that
are on your local network usually as I have indicated below.

192.168.0.1     firewall.summerfield-technology.co.uk fw
192.168.0.2	dev.summerfield-technology.co.uk dev
etc
etc
