I hope this question does not look dumb. I'm very new to UNIX and need
to set up the machine as a DNS server. FreeBSD is installed and tucking
away nicely (as far as I can tell). At bootup 'named' is mentioned in
the list of started daemons. But I'm not sure, is this all to have DNS
running? (Yes, I ordered reference manuals, but they are not available
here in Japan and it will take some time till they arrive.)

Cheers,

Kurt
