Hi all,

I'm looking at setting up two remote servers to do web hosting, and
both I'd like to make nameservers so I can do my own name resolution.
This is one area of Linux I've never messed with before, so can
someone point me in the right direction? I'm assuming this uses
BIND... correct? Also, anyone know of a website or howto that shows
how to do this? I'll probably use either Slackware 9.1 on one and Red
Hat 9.0 on the other.

Thanks, and take care,

Alex.
