RE: [cobalt-users] DNS Setup?



You said that we have to learn :)
Learn how to compile BIND instead of installing from RPMs :)
Building programs with the libraries installed in your computer is always
better, I think... compatability stuff..

It's only two more commands...
instead of rpm --upgrade it's ./configure, make & make install :)
