I can't answer any DNS questions but experience tells me that if you
are taking on nameserver administration you must be slightly mad. :-)

Subject: Planned DNS setup...


Hi guys,
 
Our DNS is a bit messed up so I'm starting from scratch. I've given
the
setup some thought but since I'm quite new to this I'd like some of
you
experts to tell me if I'm thinking along the right lines.
 
The primary/master server will be in my DMZ, running BIND 9 with
views.
Outside hosts will query the server in the DMZ for our public zones
using an
external view. Inside hosts will also query the DMZ server but get
answers
from an internal view. For redundancy, I will have a secondary server
on the
inside of my network to serve internal hosts and secondary servers
hosted at
the ISP to serve external hosts.
 
I'm thinking that I'll only need to update the server in the DMZ and
it will
transfer zone data from each of it views to the internal server and
those at
the ISP. Is this possible? Am I mad?
 
Thanks for any feedback!
 
Dan.
