However, the default behavior of the operating system is to not start the DNS service (the BIND name server) at boot time. And if you tell the QuickDNS installer not to install BIND, then QuickDNS won't launch the name service at boot time either. The simple solutions include: - Edit the QuickDNS boot script to launch the BIND name server (change "-NO-" to "-YES-" on or about line 12). - Edit /etc/hostconfig to enable the DNS service (change DNSSERVER=-NO- to DNSSERVER=-YES-). >Are the maintenance upgrades for bind or quickdns? QuickDNS. However, the QuickDNS installer includes a BIND installer. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice support@menandmice.com Making DNS Easy
