Anyone know where I can find a tutorial for this? This is really straightforward. Create a file "/etc/namedb/blackhole.db"=20 that contains the following (without the -----): =2D---- @ 1D IN SOA @ root.intranet. ( 42 ; serial (d. adams) 3H ; refresh 15M ; retry 1W ; expiry 1D ) ; minimum 1D IN NS @ =2D---- ie, an empty DNS db file. Now, for every DNS name you want to blacklist,=20 in your /etc/namedb/named.conf create an entry like the following: =2D---- zone "doubleclick.net" { type master; file "blackhole.db"; }; zone "advertising.com" { type master; file "blackhole.db"; }; zone "popupad.net" { type master; file "blackhole.db"; }; =2D---- Now restart named and you're done.

They arent so much servers as appliances. The boxes serve a distinct function, and not much else. Our hardware needs: between 2TB and 8TB of storage in a RAID configuration 1U or 2U case good reputation Our hardware support needs: reliable 24/7 support that we can call in case of hardware problems techs that go on-site to fix the problem (e.g. replace HDD) good reputation We have worked with IBM and like that solution. But are willing to consider others. Who do you use? The boxes will be in the DC/Virginia area.
