Sorry if this sounds trollish (and unappreciative), but does is lazy old me really going to have to buy and read ANOTHER 400 page book just to get DNS up and going? Maybe I'm hopelessly naive, but why is DNS so complex? How come I can't just write a text file mapping IPs to hostnames? Oh well. I believe I'll take another look at my book and the FAQs to see if I can avoid the dreaded Bind book. Thanks though Doug!
