Hello all,
I am trying to setup DNS server on Ubuntu 8.04 - AMD64 for my intranet from
http://www.howtoforge.com/installing...rver-with-bind and below is the error and configuration. Studio is my server name and the IP address is 10.10.10.4. I am wondering if the file names and the entries are correct. I also have a wins server, how can i configure DNS to get the hostnames from the WINS server instead of adding them manually?
