If sendmail is still failing to resolve names, then it sounds like your named setup is *not* okay. But you'd have to show us what the symptoms are precisely in order for us to help figure it out. For dhcpd, the answers are either in the dhcpd logs or could be if you raised the verbosity. I've been using the ISC server lately in a development testbed, and I use the '-d' option to get the log information sent directly to my terminal. "dhcpd -d -cf /usr/local/etc/dhcpd.debug.conf"
