You'll want to feel serious about it to follow through with your quest, DNS and Bind is too complicated for the casual user. If all you want is a simple cacheing server, that will install on Mandrake by selecting it during the install. Grab the RPM and install it, maybe use linuxconf to configure it. If you want to actually point it to something and use it for real for internet services you should buy a book, O'rielly's DNS and Bind is the one I own, (and use). It's such a dry subject, few publishers will touch it, this is the best: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dns4/ -- MyPHPusenet Search Engine L.A.M.P News Groups, Sponsored by Computer Critters Incorporated http://www.computer-critters.com/myphpusenet/
