Could someone advise on what this means and how to fix it?
[bcox@linux: ]$ whois virtualschool.edu
No such file or directory while getting service info for whois
Might have fat fingered webmin trying to install a caching nameserver on
my local lan as ns.virtualschool.edu by trying to adapt the various
howtos to webmin with little understanding of what's going on. DNS was
designed with job security in mind.
Along those lines, sleuth reports the following errors, none of which
make sense to me. Any suggestions?
