I'm not sure where this should go, I'm sure if this group isn't right someone will let me know! :-) Couple of things on named: 1. The file /etc/namedb/make-localhost is a script but is not installed with the execute bit set, pretty minor but figured I'd bring it up since it seems install could do that. 2. I had to buy books to find out about the "caching-only" named setup. This setup is extremely useful for users who run small networks and connect via ppp to ISPs. It's really great to have my mail on my gateway host except up until I figured that [named] out I still had to wait while my WS did a DNS lookup for the host. With this setup the named has most of the hosts I go to in cache and is much faster. I'd be willing to write the setup up but don't know where it would be submitted? The setup files are so generic they could even become sample files in /etc/namedb... | Jeffery T. White | email: zellion@cyberwind.com | | Cyberwind, The wind knows... | http://www.cyberwind.com
