Subject:   Starting multiple copies of bind?
Message-ID:  <19312.1009668613@brown.pfcs.com>

Rumor has it that it is Good Practise for folks running bind (for example)
as both an NS and a resolver to separate the functionality into different
processes, to avoid things like cache pollution.

IE, the machines providing generic resolver capability answer on a "network
visible" address, and they address queries to the local DNS server running
on, say, the loopback address.

I have the appropriate named.conf.master and named.conf.resolver files
working.

Does anybody have a clean way to start these during the boot process, or do
I simply start one of them (probably the external resolver process) from
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ ?
