Help with BIND 8

[Douglas, Earl S.]

Exactly what is the error message you were getting?
In order to use root cache file you must define the zone like any other.

zone "." IN {
        type master;
        file "root.hint";
};

I just got my some of my DNS working (pinging in Unix to defined hosts).
Now  I would like to know if I should define all my workstations as host
also.  I am using a DHCP server in SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 to assign the TCP/IP
addresses to my workstations.

Here is a brief summary of my TCP/IP hosts at the moment:

SCO 5.05:  DNS and DHCP server  at 192.168.0.99
                  (DHCP addresses 192.168.0.1  to 192.168.0.60)

Novell interNetWare 4.11   at 192.168.0.77

Old SCO 5.0.0   at 192.168.0.88   (will be retired this year)

Internet sharing device (Protec Microsystems WebBeetle WBE/SE)   at
192.168.0.90
(Internet sharing across my network and in my Windows 98 workstations)

Windows NT (coming on-line in December)

You will find attached my DNS configuration.  I am not able to use a named
root cache file (Bind states a syntax error)

Any help will be appreciated..
