DNS set-up
Were able to set-up and configure Web,File and DHCP Services except for the
DNS set-up. Isn't it that to set up dns, we have to use BIND? In Web
Services, we were able to view the default page using the servers IP
address, our client wants to view it using or typing the address for example
www.company.com, how do I do that?

I tried using the Terminal Utility but everytime I type /etc/named.conf I
encountered "permission denied" error, I logged-in as root but its still the
same error was encountered.

Thanks ,

Carljo

dhcp_release

DHCP_RELEASE(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   DHCP_RELEASE(1)

NAME

       dhcp_release - Release a DHCP lease on a the local dnsmasq DHCP server.

SYNOPSIS

       dhcp_release <interface> <address> <MAC address> <client_id>

DESCRIPTION

       A utility which forces the DHCP server running on this machine to release a DHCP lease.

       Send a DHCPRELEASE message via the specified interface to tell the local DHCP server to delete a particular lease.

       The  interface  argument  is  the interface in which a DHCP request _would_ be received if it was coming from the client, rather than being
       faked up here.

       The address argument is a dotted-quad IP addresses and mandatory.

       The MAC address is colon separated hex, and is mandatory. It may be prefixed by an address-type byte followed by -, eg

       10-11:22:33:44:55:66

       but if the address-type byte is missing it is assumed to be 1, the type for ethernet. This encoding is the one used in dnsmasq lease files.

       The client-id is optional. If it is "*" then it treated as being missing.

NOTES

       MUST be run as root - will fail otherwise.

LIMITATIONS

       Only usable on IPv4 DHCP leases.
