Being an extreme newbie, I`m not sure what it all means... :-) Yves -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Steven Broos Sent: June 9, 2003 11:52 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [newbie] More about Bind... Did you try tail -f /var/log/messages while restarting bind ? I would like to know if it gives any error-messages... I think there is a ; missing after the last bracket of your time-to-live settings.

You need to put the hosts from your domain in this file, without the domain-name, without a point after them.
