Hi, I am running BIND 8.1.1. I have a parent domain server called triquartz.its. and a child called devel.devsys.its. The problem is when I do a nslookup on either for the other ie, nslookup triquartz.its. on devel I am getting the following message : *** devel.devsys.its. can't find triquartz: No response from server I have included the extra ns in the db.domain files. Is there anything else that is sopose to be domne in order for the two to talk to each other?? Dave ---- This mail item has passed through an insecure network.
