What: Introduction to the Internet Domain Name System (DNS) Who: Ben Scott Where: SAU 1 office, 106 Hancock Rd., Peterborough http://wiki.gnhlug.org/twiki2/bin/view/Www/MonadLUG Date: Thur 11 Oct 2007 Time: 7:00 PM
This Thursday, at MonadLUG in Peterborough, Ben Scott will be presenting on DNS, the Domain Name System. == About the presentation == This will be a technical presentation, but will assume little prior knowledge of DNS. Anyone interested is encouraged to attend, and as always, we welcome newcomers and old-hands alike. The presentation will be preceded by the usual informal dinner downstairs, and followed by the usual general chit-chat and Q&A. The Domain Name System (DNS) is a mechanism that lets computers on the Internet (including yours!) find each other. I intend to cover basic DNS concepts, including purpose, structure, and record types. I will then go over how name resolution actually works on a typical Linux system. Time permitting, I want to get into how one configures ISC BIND's "named" to be a DNS server. Audience feedback will determine the pacing, so if you have an interest or a problem to solve, please bring it with you. === About the speaker === Ben is a local Linux user, enthusiast, and advocate. He handles the care and feeding of the GNHLUG Internet server, and is a GNHLUG Bored^W Board Member. -- Charles Farinella <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 14 East Ridge Dr., Peterborough, NH 03458 603.924.1977 _______________________________________________ gnhlug-announce mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-announce/ _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
