Hello following the perfect sarge tutorial, I have one comment to bind9 and a hint if you upgrade to etch In my opinion we could consider to use the bind9 for local name lookups as well. In this case, we have to add a line. nameserver 127.0.0.1 to /etc/resolv.conf Second in etch you will have to set the sysklog value in /etc/default/syslogd Regards Sebastian
