(That's what comes with FreeBSD) It will probably work with other name servers as well, but I don't have any first hand knowledge of that. As a footnote, you should be using BIND-8.2.4-REL or newer for security reasons. (Details at http://www.isc.org/bind/ ) To find out which version you are using, issue the following command: /usr/sbin/named -v Bob Martin.
