Unix / Linux are both file based operating systems. The majority of configuration can be amended by system configuration files, although as the systems have developed more and more of this is automated and hidden from the user. User configuration files will normally reside under the /etc directory.
Try: ifconfig, or ip addr show, or ip route show
BIND is the default package for Domain Name service(DNS) in Linux based systems, one of the widely used DNS servers across the internet.

According to the Linux+ Guide to Linux Certification 2nd ed., most configuration files on Linux systems are delimited using the colon symbol (:) while the awk command uses spaces or tabs as delimiters for each field in a line. SudoKing, please note that the hash symbol (#) allows the commenting of lines, not the delimiting of lines. This is not to be confused with a hashpling (such as #!/bin/bash) which is located on the first line in a shell script, and specifies the pathname to the shell that interprets the contents of the shell script.
