in progress. needs howto with screenshots of how to add dns hostname for user RB and their PC's. anyone welcome to help out.

Lately this page has been more and more needed since a lot of users do not have dns, or even worse - not having a node on wind at all. And then people wonder why they are not connectable (cannot upload) or why their DC won't work. It is also necessary in traceroutes and link-fault finding so that we can put a face (or rather nick) to an IP. We cannot expect every AP admin to make sure that all their clients dns hostnames are up and running. It is however the responsibility of AP's to make sure that their clients understand this issue.

I think it should now be sufficiently covered in my Node Update page: http://wiki.ctwug.za.net/Node_Update so we can delete this page if you like?

I think it's more usefull to have a page explaining DNS and how to configure your DNS. That's quite different to the node update page. I'll attempt some DNS explanation on this page
