Thanks for the info. I actually just ordered the latest edition of the book from the online store at daemonnews.org for $21.50 which is some sort of special because that's way cheaper than it should be. And since this book is recommended quite often on this list I might recommend everyone check out the deal and pick up a copy. It has cleared up quite a few issues, but I guess what I'm looking for are some good books on setting up firewalls and tcp/ip & udp routing. Anyone have any ideas? ----- Original Message ----- From: Doug Barton <DougB@FreeBSD.org> Date: Thursday, November 9, 2000 11:56 am Subject: Re: DNS Setup > This goes WAY beyond basic freebsd questions, and is really quite > a bit > more complicated than you are even describing here.
