If you wish to use the freeVSD DNS functionality (mod_bind), then the nameserver entries need to be the name of the nameservers that are to be used, otherwise, just the IPs of the existing nameservers. If you wish to use the mod_bind functionality, the nameservers will need to have freeVSD installed on them. If you wish to use mod_bind but don't want to touch your existing servers I would recommend that you install bind on the box you are using to test freeVSD, set it up as a nameserver, and use the name of this test box as tha name server entries. > [2] The unique IP's for each virtual server - where should those be > configured? The IP for the virtual server is set by the vs_create command. If the vs is to be seen by the outside world, it needs to be one of the IPs allocated to you, otherwise a free ip that is visible to the machine. > [3] The read timeout error - what is causing it? Could be one of numerous things, mainly that vsd itself has not closed the connection with vsdadm, before vsdadm's timeout limit. > [4] Finally - are there any other network related pre-isntaaltion tasks > required? Yes, the most important thing is that the hostname of the box is set correctly, this involves the entry in /etc/sysconfig/network, and the first entry in /etc/hosts (for the hosts IP) match. ------------------------- The freeVSD Support List -------------------------- Subscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=subscribe%20freevsd-support Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=unsubscribe%20freevsd-support Archives: http://freevsd.org/support/mail-archives/freevsd-support -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
