Hello,

I moved your post to a better location.... this is a Linux question, not a hardware problem.

Look in your RedHat 9 documentation concerning BIND.

You will probably come up with a few files in /etc that define your domain.

Are you going to use Webmin to configure it?

There are actually easier ways to setup a DNS server...bind is just the most accepted and most popular.

What you need to do is really, really research what you want to do. Many google searches and sifting will get you far in what you want to accomplish.

I suggest you research BIND 9 (most popular) and Webmin (a tool to use) for its administration.
