Linux DNS and WinNT-Server

Wed Apr 5 08:45:06 UTC 2000

Hi all,

we have one WinNT 4.0 Server running that is the Primary DNS for over 1000
Domains we host. Now we have installed a secondary DNS-Server using Linux
und BIND 8. Our Network is 19x.3x.3x.x.
In the named.conf i added the zone xxxx.in-addr.arpa. After restarting BIND
8 he transfered the zone from the NT-Server. Is that all we have to do for a
secondary DNS? And is it secure if the primary DNS crashes?

Thanks in advance
Tobias
