You may want to see included readme or INSTALL sort file in the package.
If are not created then you can create youserlf and configure it.
You can check if bind is there on your system then
try

Code: [Select]


rpm -qa | grep -i bind
rpm -qa | grep -i caching
If you get 2-3 line answer for each command then its there and you can safely create config files manually. And if you single or nothing then you need to reinstall. This time you may try rpm files.

Sorry I was busy in my Project..thats why login to this form after  no. of days

yeah...Ricky is Right....It might be possible that named.conf file was not created during installation....

You can manually create it...and after that just follow the steps written by Ricky

Hello all,


Thanks for your reply Ricky & Gaurav. I tried all the commands i reinstalled the package but
still not able to configure DNS on my RHEL (WS3). I think RHEL is not having bind package bydefault. I installed through tar but i am not getting named.conf file. Please reply me.

Thanks in Advance
