Introduction
Purpose
This document describes the technical details of Domain Name System (DNS) management for a reseller using Ensim WEBppliance software. It gives a step-by-step example to shed light on this complex topic.

Overview
This document describes the technical details you should be aware of when using Ensim’s Appliance Admin control panel to manage DNS. We will assume that you have access to a freshly installed WEBppliance and have not created any sites. If you have already created sites, please contact your hosting provider for further assistance.

DNS is an unforgiving protocol. Even a small error can cause a domain to disappear for days or weeks at a time. To avoid this, you should have the DNS “bible” — the O’Reilly DNS and Bind Book: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dns3/ — at your side. Please see the “For Further Reading” section at the end of this document for more tutorial information on DNS.

Getting started
Setting up the equipment
The Network Computer (NC) supplied to you has several input /output interfaces that may need configuring or setting up. The NC will initially require plugging into a suitably set up Ethernet Network, which should only be done by a qualified Network Administration Manager.

It will require connection to a suitable monitor, using the 15w VGA type monitor socket identified on the back panel of the NC. The unit will also need a keyboard and mouse plugged into the relevant sockets identified at the back of the NC.

Switching on
When your Network Computer is connected as described switch on the monitor and plug in the power adapter. If correctly configured your Network Computer will boot to a startup screen provided by your network server.

Don’t panic if you get the repeating message,
