Path: utzoo!attcan!uunet!mcsun!ukc!tcdcs!swift.cs.tcd.ie!gerry From: gerry@swift.cs.tcd.ie Newsgroups: comp.unix.internals Subject: BIND on Ultrix 4.0 Message-ID: <7484.2741237f@swift.cs.tcd.ie> Date: 14 Nov 90 10:59:11 GMT Organization: Computer Science Department, Trinity College Dublin Lines: 17 We would like to set up an authoritative named server for a domain on a machine that is someway down the domain tree, e.g. we would like joe.bloggs.house_a.city to be the principal authoritative server for the city domain. We would also like to be able to answer queries from john.doe.house_b.city as well as from jack.bloggs.house_a.city. Is this possible? It says so on page 13 of RFC882. We run ULTRIX 4.0 on a 5820 with about a dozen diskless 2100s but I have not been able to correctly set up the named.* files. Could somebody send me some simple examples. Thanks, Gerry O'Brien, Dept. of Computer Science, Trinity College Dublin Ireland gerry@cs.tcd.ie
