Thank you for the suggestion.  I changed the entry in /lib/ndb/local to 
look exactly as you specified, then uncommented the lines in /rc/bin/termrc.

When I restarted the computer and logged in, it hanged for a long time, 
and then said this before starting up:
init: starting /bin/rc
ndb/dns: can't read my IP address

And then of course, I could not ping anything.
