To setup DNS, I suggest starting with the linux DNS-Howto. You need also to give information on what kind of DNS setup you are looking for and what you want it to achieve.<br />

Also, if you're going to be using a rh6.1 machine on the net, you'll want to start hardening it as best you can. &nbsp;Look at <a href="http://www.linuxdoc.org/" rel="ugc">http://www.linuxdoc.org/</a>&nbsp;for the linux Security howto (you'll also find the DNS-howto there).<br />
<br />
Good Luck!

Your ISP canbe a big help with this. After all if you mess something up they feel the impact so it is in there best interest to give you a hand.

DNS setup

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
