This can be provided by your ISP, your domain registrar, or you can host it yourself (probably the least reliable option). Having an internal, private DNS server for a two-computer network may be overkill. Setting up a public and private DNS server on the same computer can be tricky. Personally, in my two-computer home network I just use IP addresses. > other says just setup as normal server. ( should work! ) It should. You can always change the setup if you need to! -- Christopher Farley www.northernbrewer.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
