Thanks and sorry ;-) Where can I get this tarball ? I am only used to the packages. And then "make" and "make install" ? I have some simple local websites in my lan, and the linux-netscape 4.7 wants to have a connection to the nameserver, before opening with the local page......hosts before bind is ok, even in the linux /etc, maybe I should learn more about this linux configuration directory, how the linux_base package works. Is there some documentation anywhere about this ?
