By getting ``DNS and BIND'' from O'Reilly. Sorry, correctly administering a name server is nothing that can be taught by a 20-line posting in Usenet. Either you can figure it out from the man page (which _is_ possible), or really better read a book first in order to understand how DNS works. There are too many possible mistakes with too much possible harm that can be done (assuming you're going to setup a DNS zone that is really connected to the Internet). I see you're using a .net account, so according to the Internet rules, you're probably a provider. Then, understanding DNS is something you need to learn anyway. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
