I have my own little server running FreeBSD on a DSL line, and found this out the hard way. In order to be a primary for yourself, you must first register you IP as a host at internic, use the hostform at: http://www.networksolutions.com/cgi-bin/itts/host > > Maybe my ISP gave it a name, but I don't have it... > > What is my best bet for finding a secondary DNS for my sites? I looked around for cheap professional DNS, but didn't really find anything I liked. So I decided doing primary on my own, and used the free DNS server at http://soa.granitecanyon.com/ for my secondary. They seems to work fine, but I prefer to do my primary on my own DNS server, as it is not that bad to be without secondary for a period, but without primary you vanish very quick.... > Talking to my ISP? > Is this something ISPs offer as a service? i.e. could I pay someone for > this? > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message Best Regards, Soren Kristensen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
