Opmantek software works much better if hostnames can be resolved; however some customer environments do not have DNS servers.  Opmantek software can function without DNS, but it functions much better with it.  With this in mind we'd like to suggest running BIND (Berkly Internet Name Domain) on the NMIS master Primary server if local DNS servers are not available. This master Primary server can then be the DNS server for all other NMIS servers in the customer environment.
