I've got DNS setup and have no problems resolving any hosts on
the network. However, when I ping the domain without a hostname,
I got "unknown host" error.
How can I set up a default host for the domain? I assume there
must be an entry I miss in <domain>.rev file.
thanks,
Dowson

Dowson, I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about but I think I
have
an idea. Your domain name itself must be defined in your zonefile..
for example, if your domain is 'foo.org':
foo.org. A 192.168.0.1
exactly the same format as your hostnames:
ftp.foo.org. A 192.168.0.2
news.foo.org. A 192.168.0.3
good luck
