Thanks Ace for taking your time to drop in. Also thanks to Kevin for testing
the servers. Excellent replys I got there.
Sorry I dropped offline for a few days.
I have already disabled forwarders on my server and are now only using
roothints. Every thing seems ok and the system is working fine. I will test
using those addresses Kevin gave me.
