Hello,
I am running BIND (8.2) on a LAN for resolving names on that LAN only.
Do I have to include directive

zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "named.ca";
};

in the conf file for the names of LAN hosts being cached ?

What's the PRECISE meaning of the named.ca file (which includes NS and A
records for ROOT servers, that i don't need on the LAN) ?

Thanx, Martin Trcka
