I cannot be sure just yet; that's the main thing. I'm afraid
that if I power down my server and reboot the new one that it
won't work. Then I could be disconnected from the
"real-world" (koff-koff) for days or weeks. I finished the
namedb/master/* files late last night.
Any DNS wizards on-list? ---I think that's the place to
start:
show the present settings and the ones I just modified ...
see if my mods look like they may work.
If you [[Or *Anybody*]] has any better starting place, I'm
open to any ideas... .

PS: I'll be up-front and add this before I send: I would
rather avoid damaging my knees by getting up/down and messing
around on the floor!
