That would be because the definitions are not there - oversight on our part. From the BIND 8 documentation: localhost Matches the IP addresses of all interfaces on the system. localnets Matches any host on a network for which the system has an interface. However, like you, I've seen "localnets" not work as expected. Instead, use explicit network notation, like this: 192.168.1/24 This matches all addresses on the 192.168.1.0 class C subnet. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice support@menandmice.com Making DNS Easy
