Yes, OK, so now if I try to connect to 'fred' the system will look for fred.isbd.co.uk as well as fred. However where/how does fred.isbd.co.uk get resolved to an IP address? Two or three of my 'fred's are print servers and/or printers which don't have a lot of inherent intelligence.

On your DNS server, preferably locally. I'm not keen having private IPs made available on a public nameserver. Regards, Martyn -- Martyn Drake http://www.drake.org.uk http://www.movielad.com http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1279160/
