Hm, when I installed bind last year for providing caching and some internal name resolution in the LAN, it didn't install many config files. I had to make up the main files by my own. What I did to get this setup was to install bind, bind-chroot and caching-nameserver (and remove it later as I saw I didn't need it). After that I saw at least two updates, but no changes to config files. Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com
