No - he's saying that he want to gonfigure DNS without using GUI tools -
in my opinion a very sensible and worthwhile thing to do. This subject
is covered in the DNS-HOWTO:

http://ldp.nllgg.nl/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html

- as well as many other places. Many of the UNIX vendors have good
online documentation that is often relevant for Linux users; eg:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/ds_form?lang=en_US
http://www.docs.hp.com/
http://docs.sun.com/

I don't think there's any 'native' SW Linux (or other UNIXes) that can't
be configured with a text editor, and it is very useful to be able to do
this.
