I have already suggested the original poster to use Smail, but this DNS problem should be easily solved with a local named that knows all the local stuff and forwards to the ISP's named for things it doesn't know. I use that setup at home, and it works quite well. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dipl.-Inform.
