Search Again: Re: Basic, getting started, need help - Mac OS X From: Men & Mice Support Date: Monday, June 30, 2003 Time: 5:46:30 pm QuickDNS 4.5.1 for Mac OS X has a problem (in the installer, not the software itself). This will be fixed soon. Anyone who installed QuickDNS Remote as a fresh install (not an upgrade) within the last week or so and is now experiencing the same problem (can't add the name server) should contact Men & Mice technical support. As for the second question, this has already been answered privately. In short, the answer is, once the new server(s) is/are set up, tell the ISP to take down their old version of the zone. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton Men & Mice Customer Support Specialist Making DNS Easy At 11:55 AM -0400 6/30/03, Nicholas J.
