That looks right. But I'm not sure. I've been using bind (named) from when it was defined/implemented. (I still remember HOSTS.TXT on MILNET (shudder!).) I have no idea how to configure M$ Windoze boxes in a non-bind environment. When you have time, I would suggest you get the O'Reilly book (Cricket) and learn about DNS. It's a basic skill that anyone who will manage a UNIX system needs to be proficient. You'll need DNS as soon as you have another FreeBSD box (managing duplicate /etc/hosts files is error prone) or connect your network to the Internet. Alex Kwan wrote: > > Hi!
