There are a few suggestions on how to setup the DNS, however, most people 
point out that I should run the script  /usr/sbin/bindsetup

Alternatively, I can manually edit /etc/resolv.conf AND /etc/svc.conf.  The 
format of these files are in the man pages.

Also, a book titled "DNS and BIND" by Paul Albitz & Cricket Liu from 
O'Reilly & Associates will be a good resources on setting up and maintaining 
DNS.

Thank for all the help.

Andrew Mak
