Well, firstly, thanks for all the replies. Finding that dnrd site was excellent - thanks a million for that because I am partway into the throes of setting up a small home network - I've got a potential Linux client, I've got a potential Win98 client, and am hoping to get a box for an SELinux/XenLinux setup to run various major (and complex) RDBMSs without them running all over each other, as they are wont to do. Plus of course the OpenBSD firewall ... And of course, when and if I can afford to get it running, my AS/400 ... <:^)
I hope to be able to afford the requisite books on all the topics, one of these days ... ;) Wesley Parish On Wed, 12 Nov 2003 10:27, you wrote: > On Tue, 11 Nov 2003 23:10, you wrote: > > I need some of the sites - I've got some questions I want to pose. > > The canonical source of BIND knowledge. > http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind9.html > > The BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual is included with the source > distribution in DocBook XML and HTML format, in the doc/arm directory. > > There is also a .pdf rendition of the above. > http://www.nominum.com/content/documents/bind9arm.pdf > > O'Reilly has got into the act with the 'Cricket Book' at:- > http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dns4/ > > Imho, the authors of the above all make the assumption, like most computer > book authors, that you are already fully au fait with not only the subject > matter but also the unix computer lore, and are thus fairly opaque. > > For something slightly more down to earth there is a Linux HOWTO at:- > http://www.ibiblio.org/Linux/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html > > For a small home or office network the above is severe overkill and I'd > suggest:- > http://users.zoominternet.net/~garsh/dnrd/ > > For completeness only, you might care to know about:- > http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html -- Clinesterton Beademung - in all of love. Mau e ki, "He aha te mea nui?" You ask, "What is the most important thing?" Maku e ki, "He tangata, he tangata, he tangata." I reply, "It is people, it is people, it is people."
