Hello All, Some months back when there was a discussion on using a caching name server so at that time I used the local package manager to install bind and co. but at that time something had happened and the system went into a runaway process with the HDD continuously active. After a forced restart, the package manager showed bind and co. ticked (installed) but they are actually not in the system. When I uncheck to remove the packages, it gives an error that these packages were not found. Today I tried it out again but same result. So now I used yumx and selected 3 packages bind, caching-nameserver and chrootbind(?). This time too the system went into a tizzy and the hdd was running continuously and even the screen froze and went hollow (only outlines, no solids). Again I had to force restart. Is there any way I can clean up my act without a clean re-install? Thanks in advance and Regards, Rony. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
