The master zone server is the "reference" set of answers for DNS records. In practice, this should be set to the server upon which the DNS administrators first make their changes, which are then propgated out to slave servers. This will probably be one of the NS records for your domain, although it doesn't have to be. If you're not sure what the master server for the domain you want to monitor is, you should ask your network administrator. I realize that in most cases the person who runs mon on the network will also be the DNS administrator but in other cases perhaps not. In your case that might look something like this: dns.monitor -zone redhat.com -master ns1.redhat.com ns1.redhat.com ns2.redhat.com ns3.redhat.com andrew _______________________________________________ mon mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/mon
