Not much of an insight, but I had a similar thing yesterday setting up BIND. Seems something in the Debian set-up scripts is adding hostnames to localhost by default. When I removed the hostname (and put it into the following line "192.168.0.27 mashtela.eisham mashtela"), BIND suddenly started to work. Looks as though the default set-up should be changed. -- richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
