To start with, my named.conf doesn't contain anything like this, my named.local.conf does though, that's where all the zones are that relate to the sites I have running on the server. So which file do I enter the code shown below in? Then, the first zone appears to be "." What does that mean? zone "." { type slave; file "/etc/bind/zones/db.root"; masters { ; }; allow-transfer { any; }; notify no; }; Then the next zone, this one seems to make sense, I guess it slaves OpenNIC's T1 servers? What about the file these two zones point to, like this one; ("/etc/bind/zones/slaves/db.dns.opennic") Does that get created automatically, or do we have to do that our selves, if so, what permissions and ownership do we give it? zone "dns.opennic.glue" { type slave; file "/etc/bind/zones/slaves/db.dns.opennic"; masters { 75.127.96.89; }; notify no; allow-transfer { any; }; }; Next, what does "allow-recursion { any; }; " mean in this case? Thanks, Peter Wanged from my Kaiser by a mischievous pixie!
