That doesn't matter. Without a working DNS server, Asterisk will fall over -- even if all your configuration files are using IP addresses and you have all your own machines in /etc/hosts . Probably the easiest thing to do is just install bind9 on your Asterisk box (and make sure to put nameserver 127.0.0.1 in its resolv.conf). BIND is pretty lightweight as servers go, so should not impact badly on performance, especially if it's the only machine using it. -- AJS Answers come *after* questions. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
