Hi group,

Being somewhat new to Linux I was hopeing someone could point me to a
decent site or possibly point me in the right direction to set up DNS
on my Linux Box.

I have 5 computers on the network, one being the RH 7.2 Box setup for
a server.
I want a domain name such as home.com and have an ip addres assigned
to each computer with hostname and Domain name automatically as the
computers log on. The other computers all run WinNT or XP.
I will be wanting to use my Linux computer as an Internet gateway
also. To connect to the internet and share the connection over my
other windows machines and wireless.

TIA

Johan K
