You'll need to tell us your server operating system before we can answer that definitively. Most operating systems have some way to set services to start at boot time, other than manually editing init.d or rc.d files. For example, in Red Hat, you'd use the /sbin/setup utility. Aside from that, to start named immediately, you can use ndc, which is usually located in /usr/sbin/ndc. However, the command channel is renamed by QuickDNS, so if you have already installed QuickDNS, you'll need to use a command like the following: /usr/sbin/ndc -c /var/run/qdns <command> where <command> is any of the ndc commands, such as start, stop, or restart. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice cbuxton@menandmice.com We Make DNS Easy!
