after installing RHEL5 i don't find /etc/named.conf


Hi;
When configuring a DNS primary server for an intranet without connexion to internet, I don't find /etc/named.conf
I reinstall my RHEL5 and give these informations:
host: aide_pc1.domtun.abc
doamin: domtun.abc
IP's server(pc1): 192.168.10.10
IP's router : 192.168.10.1
I declare also that I'll use PC1 (aide_pc1) as my primary DNS
After installing I find all network files except /etc/named.conf
I tried to create one but when I test my DNS
# host aide_pc1
I receive an error: echec to load root cache \m no path to reach the aim host, verify that your machine is connectected to internet.
N.B: excuse my tanslation from my french message.
AT last please is there someone who could help me

Hi,

On my machine, /etc/named.conf is installed by
the "bind" package, you should install that
package in order to have a DNS server.

Best regards,
