Hi, again! Thanks for all the help, esp. to Crist and Doug. it seems that my
settings were correct after all, just that those people on the other side
didn't actually do what they were supposed to with the IP's.
Anyhow, there are other things I'm concerned about, which are the error
messages that named produces while loading, something about not being able
to open enough files. Here're the log entries:

-- snip snip --
Later on, when i send named a HUP signal, it dies with the message:
can't open '/etc/namedb/named.conf'
I have about 26 different SOA files that named needs to look up, and I'm not
sure what change to the kernel started causing this. Doesn't seem like a
limit problem with login.conf either. Currently using 4.0-RELEASE btw.
Thanks again to all. :)

This is far from my area of expertise, but my understanding is that for
new network blocks you need to add the first address as a regular
address (b.b.b.2 netmask 255.255.255.0) without the alias. Then add the
remaining addresses in that block as aliases to it (b.b.b.3 netmask
255.255.255.255 alias). The definition of "new network block" will be
dependent on how the first block is defined.

Not to worry. This list is for all questions related to FreeBSD. The
only time you will run into problems is if you ask a question that is
covered by the handbook or in the mail archives. Get in the habit of
checking them first.
Good luck,
Doug
