Hello!

I would like to ask is there any website which show the steps clearly on setting up DNS in Linux?

Thanks a lot!
Martin

First, DNS is more properly called BIND for Berkely Internet Name Domain. Search internet for BIND or better your distro's website or any other linux site, for the most part. (till someone answers with more specific info.

Not sure what you are talking about Charles. I believe that Martin is talking about DNS (Domain Name Server).

Or maybe we're both wrong.

BIND is the typical DNS program used, if I'm not mistaken there are a few others, but chances are Martin is probably going to use BIND.

Here is the BIND9 admin manual. http://www.nominum.com/resources/documentation/Bv9ARM.pdf

Here is also a pretty decent setup guid.

Hope this is of help.

DNS & Bind (O'Reilly) is also a very good manual.

The dns howto, though dated is still
excellent, and probably the best place to
start.
