Just make sure your server isn't publically accessible if you can (so you don't have to deal with bug-of-the-month patches for BIND), and install the caching-only nameserver RPM (assuming RH of course). IIRC, it "just works" without additional config. All you need to do then is point your other systems at it. -- --------------------------------------------------- Derek Martin | Unix/Linux geek ddm at pizzashack.org | GnuPG Key ID: 0x81CFE75D Retrieve my public key at http://pgp.mit.edu - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
