http://tldp.org/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html
Its all in there. I used this very document to do the setup in HP-UX.
Just install BIND from http://software.hp.com before you start.

Re: how to setup DNS server and client
And if my psychic powers were not so weak, I
might know something about how you did it.
But they are weak, so I know nothing about
your DNS configuration.
> [...] delayed login [...]
Log in how? Telnet? SSH? R[EM]SH? FTP?
This type of delay commonly happens when the
reverse (address-to-name) DNS look-ups fail.
Some servers try to get the name of the
client system when it connects. That may
take some time to fail (when it fails).
A Forum search for keywords like
delay login dns
should find many previous discussions of the
problem.

And if my psychic powers were not so weak, I
might know something about what is in those
(and other) files. But they are weak, so I
still know nothing about your DNS
configuration.

Re: how to setup DNS server and client
What is the IP address of the Telnet client?
What happens when you do this on the Telnet
server:
nslookup Telnet_client_IP_address
?
If it's slow (and fails), then there's a
problem with the DNS configuration, probably
on the DNS server (10.123.38.23, apparently).
> i have made some configuration below...
None of this says much about the DNS server
configuration, which is where I expect the
problem to be.

Re: how to setup DNS server and client
Hi......
this is the output of nslookup from HPUX (clients)
# nslookup 10.123.38.23 <--- IP of dns server
*** Warning - the local domain is not set.
*** Either hostname should be a domain name,
*** the domain should be specified in /etc/resolv.conf,
*** or the shell variable LOCALDOMAIN should be set.
Name Server: idns1.intra.com
Address: 10.123.38.23
Trying DNS
Name: idns1.intra.com
Address: 10.123.38.23
just to give an additional info regarding on the configuration of dns server, we are using LINUX platform as DNS server and we are using HPUX,LINUX, AIX as client servers...
Also, just also to give you an info on the result of testing, After configuring clients on HPUX, LiNUX, and AIX... Linux and AIX are normal while on HPUX we enccountered slow connection upon logon... it takes 40 seconds before the login prompt (both Telnet and SSH)....
please advise if theres a parameters needed to add on the configuration on both server and clients....

Response (?):

What does your response have to do with my
request?
> What is the IP address of the Telnet server?
> What is the IP address of the Telnet client?
Still wondering.
