civileme, 1. Thanks for all your good help over the last year or so! Hope things go well for you and you do find time to continue participating on the newbie and expert lists! 2. Just took a look at SNF (http://www.mandrakesoft.com/products/snf/features), and noticed that it does not mention DNS. I would have thought that it would be nice to run a caching DNS server on that (on the premise that such would speed up DNS requests out to the Internet, and that it would alleviate the need for me to create a DNS server to serve my LAN). Is DNS included but not mentioned, or if it is not included, is there some technical or security related reason? regards, Randy Kramer
