*I'm new to bind. I want to be able to test the dns server on my local 
machine before launching it by putting the domain names (ie example.com) 
in my browser and browsing the site.*


*Both the dev and production machines are CentOS. I assume I'll need to 
edit the host file to redirect to the local dns. But with this method 
I'm not sure how it will resolve multiple domains (i.e. example.com and 
example2.com).*


*I use a virtual box version of CentOS to run experiments so I can do a 
host/guest thing if needed. *


*There are 2 ways I'll use the dns in production. At the domain register 
I'll either point to this dns server or host the dns at the domain 
register and point the A record to the IP.*


*Brian*
