I have five machines there and I am experimentin with DNS/Bind I have setup named and it works when i test from all the machines using ping and stuff. The problem is that when I connect to my BSD server (http) using ie3 with the FQDN I can't get to the web page. But when I ping the same FQDN or ftp to it, it works. When I just connect to just the home name (namely just www as the address), it works (but not www.impakt.net). The client machine that I am using is Windoze 95. This is how the zone file looks. Also please... correct me on my in-addr.arpa entries.... I think I must have clucked up there...
