Then there is your problem. See
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/rt/2600/prodlit/2600_ds.htm
for a list of modules you can use.

The CPU inside a 2600 is nowhere near powerful enough to handle 100M anyway.

It's standard BIND, so you ought to get hold of a copy of "Managing DNS and
BIND" or suchlike.

To set up a caching nameserver: In /etc/rc.conf:

named_enable="YES"
named_flags="-u bind -g bind"        # optional, but improves security by
                                     # not running as root

Then to create the localhost zonefile:
# cd /etc/namedb
# sh make-localhost

Then you need to start named by hand (to save you having to reboot the box)
# /usr/sbin/named -u bind -g bind

That's it. No ISP I know of backs up their customer's mail (but they do use
resilient disk subsystems)

Brian.
