Re: [cobalt-users] DNS problem...please help? {Scanned}

Gerald,

On my Raq4, I did have the following syntex in my /etc/named.conf but I was
still not able to resolve database.clamav.net:

options {
        directory "/etc/named";
        allow-recursion { XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/24; localhost; };
        allow-query { XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/24; localhost; };
        version "WPPi Name Server - NA";
        allow-transfer { XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX; XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX; };
};

Thanks,

SW
