SUMMARY: DNS server configuration for an out of domain client

In fact, i wanted to add an intranet server called "www.net.com" in my
"xxx" domain.
So I created a new db file "net.com.db" with the address of my server "www"
and added a line in named.boot file:
        
...
primary xxx hosts.db
primary net.com net.com.db (<- line added)
...

I typed "kill -1 <named process>" ... and it's work.
I didn't need "reverse lookups", so i didn't create a "net.com.rev" file

Thanks to Belinda Krigel for her suggestion.

Hello admins,

We use a private network, with a domain name "xxx" and one primary DNS
server (Tru64 4.0G). On this network, there is a new intranet server "badly"
named "net.com"

Some NT clients want to connect to this server as "net.com" (and not
net.xxx)
I add it in my DNS database with or without the .com suffix, but it cannot
be resolved.
Is there a simple solution?
thanks
