Yes...it's better to create a zone file for the reverse IPs for whatever private network that you'll be using. Do not set up zone files for zones you aren't actually going to use. If you're going to stick with the 172.16 network, just set up a zone for that. If you're going to use 192.168, set up a zone file for that. But do *not* create extra work for yourself by setting up zone files for IP blocks you won't be using. -- Mike Burger http://www.bubbanfriends.org Visit the Dog Pound II BBS telnet://dogpound2.citadel.org or http://dogpound2.citadel.org:2000 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
