I have one debian linux server, which manage the domain name system.
Now there´s one domain on this machine for sending and getting emails.
How can I configure bind8 to manage more than one domain with this

I've just upgraded to the 2.2 (2.2.16 I think) kernel, and have a couple of

You can also change the password by loggin in as root, and use mysql,
change the password entry in the table user (with SQL statements, don't

I just checked. the epplets can be found on the debian ftp site. the latest
