I've already moved the news and web servers, and DNS is next. Here's my question: does DNS require a separate machine, or are its resource requirements rather small? The web server runs on a Pentium 2 266/128M/4G IDE. Should I run BIND on that or build its own server? Any input much appreciated as always. Thanks again, Roman -- Roman Katsnelson UNIX SysAdmin Graphnet <-- migrating it all to FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
