Chris,
My current situation is that my ISP is providing secondary DNS service for
me, until I can afford another machine and IP address. When I run the DNS
Expert it tells me that I should have an entry for the secondary DNS, but as
yet, I have been unable to find a way to enter the information that looks
right to me. My main problem is just finding the field to enter the
secondary DNS number in my primary domain info.

Also, thank you for letting me know about the secondary license, I will be
using that one as soon as I can so that I don't have to worry about weird
delays through my ISP.

Jim Ludwig
