The ReadMe.Doc catalog on floppy lists the DNS and Bind book at $24.00.
I'm not sure whether the catalog includes the standard 20-25% discount
or not.  I remember seeing you message about ReadMe.Doc, Chuck, and I've
purchased a few books from them since.  It is definitely a good deal since
I don't find any discounts on technical books; they're hard enough to find
where I live.

Even if they do not carry the book, they will order it from the publisher
and still give you their standard 20-25% discount.

Thanks, Chuck.
