How do I set the lines in named.boot to reflect this, especially IN-ADDR-ARPA? (2) Can anyone tell what is required to run PPP as a server on this box, as well? I will be installing a Cyclades Multi-port card(s) in the box, and have the setup for the IO devices, but that is all I can figure out so far. Do I need psuedo devices? How do I assign IP addresses to each of these ports for dial-in users? Thanks very much in advance, Joe Buczakowski
