Hi there - I need to install a DNS server on one of our systems running version 4.1. The server itself does not have a CD-ROM drive, so I am going to mount the media on a remote system and extract the files that I need from that location. My question is, what packages do I need to install to properly set up the DNS server? Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

First I did a 'man rpm' Then I searched within man for "requires" There were a couple and so I read the one pertaining to "query" Then I did "rpm -q --requires bind" It gave me a list of needed items. I hope this is correct and works for you too.> <snip sig stuff>-- Bill -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hi there -- I have completed downloading the BIND software onto the system in question, and I am now ready to configure the DNS server. The type of server I want to create is a caching server. The reason for this is I want the system to resolve hostnames exclusively within a private network, 192.168.0.x, and the server will NOT have access to the Internet. I know I will need to modify the /etc/named.conf and other files but I am not familiar with what settings are needed. What tools and/or entries can I use to complete the configuration of the server? Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces at centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces at centos.org]On Behalf Of William L.
