Hi-

You need to update the following files:

/etc/hosts
/etc/nodename
/etc/hostname.$interface

where $interface is hme0|eri0|le0, depending on what type of machine you are installing this on.

isnt there like a file were u change a zone or somthing and add www to it?
i did this about a year ago but i cant rember what files i changed

That's only if you're running a name service on your local network (man domainname).

If you just have a web server off of your leased line/internet connection then it's just a case of doing as was suggested above with those files.

ok thats what i need to figure out then..how to set up a name server.
i been playin with it but i dont think my /var/named/netsouth.org file has the right stuff in it
