Read the book.  DNS and Bind.  O'Reilly.  (Gee, I said it again
<smile>.)

Sure sounds like a bad idea in my book.  We've just agreed that this ISP
guy doesn't know a thing about DNS.  So he gets to handle yours.

Of course he doesn't charge anything, and I do.  Gee, how many domains
do you have?  Do you think you might spend $30 or $40 a month?  Is it
worth it?  I just don't know <smile>...
