Get O'Reilly's DNS and BIND - ISBN 1 56592 512 2 - has a load of examples covering both BIND 4.x and BIND 8.x files and their differences. That being said - it's pretty easy: Throw these lines in /etc/rc.conf named_enable="YES" named_program="/usr/sbin/named" By default, named looks in /etc/namedb for configuration files. The biggest changes happen in yer named.conf file. // BIND configuration file - names & numbers changed to protect the innocent options { directory "/etc/namedb"; forwarders { 172.16.50.254; 172.16.60.254; }; }; zone "yernamehere.com" in { type slave; file "db.yernamehere"; masters { 172.16.70.254; }; allow-transfer { 172.16.80.254; }; }; zone "30.16.172.in-addr.arpa" in { type master; file "db.172.16.30"; allow-transfer { none; }; }; etc... Hope this helps..

I am familiarwith Bind 4.3 but not this newer style. Is there any documentation on how tosetup the newer DNS server.I have been to the Internet Consortium for information and what there is the samethat comes with the package. Is there any light you can shed on my situation. I learn a great deal by example.
