DNS BIND/iX

How to Run The DNS Server

Syslog/iX.”

2. Examine /BIND/PUB/etc/named.conf and customize for your own

environment.

3. Conﬁgure the zone data ﬁles referenced in your

/BIND/PUB/etc/named.conf.

/etc/resolv.conf for all MPE and HPUX hosts that you wish to

use this server for resolution queries. On MPE hosts, make sure that

/etc/resolv.cnf is actually a symlink pointing to the real data at
