Then stand re-corrected. All that any user on the 'internal' network has to do is pull from some other DNS. It's typical to access a dn server geographically close. but it makes little difference in reality. The issue boils down to a dn server can be an authority for anything it likes. It can choose, in the normal case, to defer to, or refresh it's knowledge of other domains, or, it could ignore them. The latter is not the norm and would break the fabric of the internet if it were so. But, one of the 'hardiness' aspects built in to the internet and it's domains is the user, is free to avoid a 'broken' server quite easily. </preaching to the choir> -- http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
