Hi all

I am new to Pyton for starters. Very new in fact. Please bear with my 
stupidity, if it is obvious. I have read back in archives for answers 
to my question but alas...

I have started the tedious task of reading through the various 
documentation files and have stumbled across the following in the 
"Macintosh Library Modules" documentation:

"This module provides an interface to the Macintosh Domain Name 
Resolver. It is usually used in conjunction with the mactcp module, 
to map hostnames to IP addresses. It may not be available in all Mac 
Python versions."

It is not available in my version. Some of the functions in this DNR 
are however of interest to me. What I would like to know is:

1. Why is it not available? Is it incompatible with newer OS-es or 
something like that?
2. If it is possible for me to get it, where can I get it?

Thanks in advance.

Greg
