Thank you regards Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2.2. Assumptions about the Local Area Network Some specific assumptions about this sample network are: Three workstations and a Server are connected with Ethernet cabling: a FreeBSD Server ("itsfreebsd") with an 3COM adapter configured as 'vx0' a Windows-95 workstation ("pooh") with Microsoft's "native" 32-bit TCP/IP drivers The IP Addresses on the Ethernet side of this sample LAN have been taken from the pool of "reserved" addresses proposed in RFC-1597. IP addresses are assigned as follows: Name IP Address "itsfreebsd" 10.0.0.1 # The FreeBSD box "pooh" 10.0.0.2 # The Win'95 box ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- a file: named.boot directory /etc/namedb ; type domain source host/file backup file cache . named.root primary asia.net. asianet.db .............................................................. a file: asianet.db @ IN SOA asia.net. root.asia.net.
