RE: Need help with newbie training on DNS/Bind
Hey, I would really recommand: DNS and BIND - 4th Edition (Covers Bind 9) ISBN 0-596-00158-4 Covers bind and name resolution in every possbile aspect! A really must have book! These own seems to be good (I personnaly don't have it, but it sounds interesting) and also good addition to the previous mentionned book: DNS and BIND Cookbook http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0596004109/qid=1039168701/ sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_2/103-3722991-0502249?v=glances=books#product-details Hope this helps Didier -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Grant Cooper Sent: Friday, December 06, 2002 08:53 Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Need help with newbie training on DNS/Bind From one newbie to another, drop Bind and go with djbdns.

Most of the general Introduction to UNIX/Freebsd type books seem to have chapters on DNS and BIND as well. I have a feeling you were thinking more in terms of free docs, but for a topic as fundamental as DNS, a good book can be worth the cost of admission.

Can anyone help with this? I searched, but the tutorials I found so far suck. Think newbie who's never touched bind. :) Thanks again.

From one newbie to another, drop Bind and go with djbdns. I tried both and djbdns was 10* easyer to use and install. In two days I had DNS resolution working.
