According to the primer this file should handle reverse lookup as well. It is called from named.boot. I'm using the names supplied by the primer for humours sake but changed them for my machines. I'm using 2.2.6- RELEASE if that makes any difference. BTW ftp is slow to connect as well. Thanks for the suggestion ... I learned some more in investigating it 8>) Greg. gregm@netidea.com @ IN SOA my.domain. root.my.domain.
