What version of QuickDNS are you using? For QuickDNS 3: =============== - Connect to the second server. - Remove all zones. (I have an AppleScript to do this in QuickDNS 3.5.) - Add all zones back in as slave zones. (An AppleScript is included to do just this in QuickDNS 3.5.) For new zones, make sure you're connected to both servers when you create the zone. Then when it asks what server(s) to create the zone on, you can select one server as master and the other as slave. Both servers will be configured at the same time. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice cbuxton@menandmice.com We Make DNS Easy!
