The book is DNS and Bind, by Paul > Albitz and Cricket Liu, published by O'Reilly & Associates. Even a lot of the specific references to BIND are relevant, since -- surprise, surprise -- BIND zone files look a heck of a lot like QDNS zone files (QDNS just lays it out in a nice spreadsheet-like interface for us). QDNS doesn't use the same type of text-based config files that BIND does, but a lot of the configuration options are similar, since they follow the DNS protocol. > Full disclosure: Cricket Liu is on Men & Mice's technical advisory board. Cool. That's good to know. 8^) Christopher Bort | cbort@globalhomes.com Webmaster, Global Homes | webmaster@globalhomes.com <http://www.globalhomes.com/> | PGP public key available on request
