Do you mean in the /etc/resolve.conf file? If so, then yeah, as long as bind is listening on the loopback interface, then you can list 127.0.0.1 as the first resolver. I wouldn't bother listing the external IPs on the same machine -- if it's the same bind instance then listing it twice is going to give you double the grief waiting for dns timeouts when bind dies before it moves onto the slaves. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://spacepants.org/jaq.gpg -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
