We have a lan running a FreeBSD server (2.0.5). It was set up so that we could carryout our HTML authoring off line. The problem is that we can't seem to get the DNS working.....or at least we think thats the problem. We want to be able to run a httpd daemon (cern) that allows us to allocate domain names for our clients that are the same as they will use when the pages actually go live. SO we have our own site set up on the machine as: http://our.site.com/ And we want our clients to be set up so that the URL is: http://our.clientsite.com/ We have assumed that it is the Domain name server that handles this and have been unable to get it sorted as yet. Any help, hints etc that anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. If you could mail you replies directly to us as we dont have the time to follow this news group on a regular basis. Thanks Gavin
