Infiltrator Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) Is your internet working? Make sure bind is indeed running, sudo /etc/init.d/bind9 restart Edit: Bind should now be installed, the error you got could be due to Bind not running or the us.archive.ubuntu.com being down. I found this thread in the Ubuntu forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=359300 Edited October 3, 2010 by Infiltrator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xhacks Posted October 3, 2010 Author Share Posted October 3, 2010 but now i need to know how to add my dns info into it i want to use gedit if possible i like graphical more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiltrator Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) In order to add new dns records, you will need to edit the named.config file sudo vi /etc/bind/named.conf This threads can walk you through that process a lot easier than I could. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=236093 http://ulyssesonline.com/2007/11/07/how-to...rver-in-ubuntu/ Edit: And if you watch, the last episode of Hak5, you will see that Darren demonstrates how to open a text file in a graphic user interface.
