RE: V7 Software List

If your network does not have a DNS you can use iNav to have your i run
your DNS. We use that in our DMZ. It's best to have DNS run on multiple
machines though. If you bring down your i to perform maintenance and now
they can't even print to a printer because there's no DNS resolution for
the name then don't expect a free beer. That's why, when you checked your
PC there's spaces for you to enter more than one DNS. And on CFGTCP, 12.
Change TCP/IP domain information, there's space for you to enter 3 DNS in
"Domain name server:".

For some reason we have to have all possible security to administer that
DNS. It grinds some developers that "Tom" the network consultant has much
higher security access on our IBM i than they do. (But it's a limited
lpar.)

Configuring it on your IBM i might be just enough grit to get your network
admin going to get it done in Windows.
