>1. Get Bind and install it.
it ships with redhat >2. Edit the bind so that I have a local private domain as well as my public >one (split DNS?) if you want. i don't. i just define my internal domain as <intra.datacabl.com>, thus my machines are <machine.intra.datacabl.com>, and thus <mail.datacabl.com> still resolves to the address defined by my isp, which is what i want. >3. Edit the nameservers on the private network to point to this new DNS >server rather than the ISPs nameservers that they currently point to. you can either do this at each machine individually, or you can set up the DHCP server that also ships with redhat, and DHCP can inform your other machines what to use for their DNS server. hth, greg gregory mott tel 978-386-9986, icq 5856302 i pledge allegiance to the earth and all that lives upon her and the delicate balance in which it all stands one planet alive with spirit in full harmony with deep respect for all _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
