How do I set up my system so that any request is made to my remote nameserver. I have something like this in my resolv.conf, where x.y.z.w is the IP address of my central nameserver: nameserver x.y.z.w domain uni-c.dk Do I need to set up anything else to resolve any queries? Do I need to set up in.named and /etc/named.boot? Erik Lawaetz UNI*C Lyngby Danish Computing Centre for Research and Education +45 45 93 83 55 DTH, Building 305 uniel@uts.uni-c.dk DK-2800 Lyngby
