Your DNS server is letting you know that it is creating an entry for tony-xp because it already exists. This is a result of your dynamic dns and dhcp settings. I am only familiar with WinDHCP (all the companies where I have worked have run WinDHCP and it's been a few years since I last worked on one) but there may be some setting to scavenge stale entries in *nix. Anyway, it is an informational message and not a error one, so as long as "dig hostname" and "dig -x hostip" are returning the correct info, you could simply ignore it. (I find the "CNAME" reference puzzling but it must be part of your setup.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
