Being chemical engineers and not cs majors, we face a small problem when it comes to keeping our system running... My question is, how to we get a name server running on our mips m-120/5. We have 2 ethernet cards for a gateway, but, now we need a name server. I have the names for several servers at mit, but I do not know how to configure our 120 to use these servers. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks, Tim +============================================================================+ | Timothy J.

Edit the first 3 files as appropriate for your site and place the four files in their correct locations.
