DNS servers *are* the link between domain name and IP address. Someone has to run it, there is no other way to 'establish' it. Like any service (such as web services, mail, cloud), the choice of whether to host it yourself or pay someone else to host it really boils down to what you use it for. If you only have a small handful of domain names that rarely update, don't bother. If you have a dynamic, complex infrastructure, it might make sense. -- Jonathan Billings <billings@xxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
