If so, how should I edit those bind files in order to > represent the sub-net? Also, where can I get those info? You may wish to purchase the O'Reilly book "DNS and Bind." It's a very good intro to dealing with DNS and other fun games. Barring that, do a web search for some introductory information about it. The DNS server, except for reverse namelookups, doesn't care what the subnets look like. It just handles name to address mapping. Perhaps I'm missing your question a bit, though. -Dave Andersen -- angio@aros.net Complete virtual hosting and business-oriented system administration Internet services.
