Hello,
We are in the process of re-doing our DNS for msmisp.com. We have been running
Windows NT version and have been having several problems. I have gotten the BIND
v8.2.5 installed on a different PC with all of the zones recreated. The question I have
is the proper way to implement it. All of our domain registrations with Network
Solutions points to 207.79.8.67 (routermsm) and 207.79.8.66 (news). I am wanting
to change the names of the servers that will be hosting the DNS records to something
more standard (ie: NS1 & NS2). I have the new BIND records setup to reflect this and
after removing the WINNT DNS and putting in BIND, have the new names reflected in
the db.msmisp.com file. Should I setup a CNAME to point to the old routermsm name
until we can make the appropriate changes on Network Solutions or does the name listed
even matter? I will also be changing the secondary name server to a different IP address
on a different segment vs what it is currently (news @ 207.79.8.66) Currently, there is no
server even at that address. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Rick Evans
