Well, ehm, yes. It *does* get you started, but makes you miss a lot of 
valid (non Cobalt specific) points that, luckily, are to be found 
elsewhere. (Of course, Cobalt is in the business of selling and supporting 
appliances, so the above document is a *bonus* and not a feature. As such, 
it suffices.)

For instance:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html # essential reading!
http://www.acmebw.com/askmrdns/ # AFAIK, it is now unmaintained, but still 
useful
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dns4/ # The Book
news:comp.protocols.dns.bind # does *anybody* use usenet these days? ;-)

Good luck... Nico
