Dave,

    This is my thinking. One it's for a play toy :) And expensive one but 
hey :)
It's mostly to ID my home network, my laptop and a few other systems. It's 
something I'd like to try and if nothing else learn about.

Since the DNS will be off site IE not my home network and a network I'll 
never be attached directly too. I figure it's probally the best way to play.

Relalistily i'll probally use dyndns and have a cname within my zone to 
point to the dyndns name. Since it will be easier that way and because I can 
handle DNS though my registrar.

It still goes back to something I would like to learn about cause in AD I 
can see how authnication takes place but with BIND I'm kinda lost how the 
integrity is kept. It's something new for me to learn :)

Thank you for confirming my thoughts :)

TC
