[-- Attachment #1 --] DNSits an excellent way to start. the handbook had tons of info on DNS if I remember correctly which is where I got started with it from. basically what you have to do in short is write zone files for forward and reverse for your private network then set a forwarder to your ISP in your named.conf http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/dns.html options { forwarders { 206.13.29.12; }; }; for example or you could just get the named.ca from internic and pull it from there which is how I've always done it . the page I posted gives you pretty much a start to finish on how to get bind going, its super easy. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Scott Overfield Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2002 8:57 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; 'Eric Six' Subject: DNS Good Morning, Here is my question.......My ISP hosts my DNS for routable addresses, I would, however, like to set up a non-microsoft DNS server for my LAN, which is using non-routable addresses....What is the best way to accomplishing this? I do have a dual homed FreeBSD box set up behind my firewall, functioning as a NAT box to provide internet access from the LAN....could this box possibly be set up to respond to internal DNS queries, and forward all others to the ISP's DNS server? If so, how is this configured? Please excuse me if this is a newby question, I have zero experience with BIND or any DNS server other than microsoft......however, I am interested in banishing windoze, at least from the server room....I thought this might be a good place to start..... ******************************************** Scott Overfield Network Administrator Gratiot County Community Mental Health 989-466-4109 soverfield@gccmha.org [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>DNS</TITLE> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2713.1100" name=GENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY> <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>its an excellent way to start. the handbook had tons of info on DNS if I remember correctly which is where I got started with it from. basically what you have to do in short is write zone files for forward and reverse for your private network then set a forwarder to your ISP in your named.conf</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><A href="http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/dns.html">http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/dns.html</A></FONT></SPAN></DIV>; <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>options {</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2> forwarders { 206.13.29.12; };</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>};</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002> for example</SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002>or you could just get the named.ca from internic and pull it from there which is how I've always done it . the page I posted gives you pretty much a start to finish on how to get bind going, its super easy.</SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=220051517-20022002></SPAN><FONT face=Tahoma><FONT size=2><SPAN class=220051517-20022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff> </FONT></SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Tahoma><FONT size=2><SPAN class=220051517-20022002></SPAN></FONT></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Tahoma><FONT size=2><SPAN class=220051517-20022002></SPAN></FONT></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Tahoma><FONT size=2><SPAN class=220051517-20022002> </SPAN>-----Original Message-----<BR><B>From:</B> owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]<B>On Behalf Of </B>Scott Overfield<BR><B>Sent:</B> Wednesday, February 20, 2002 8:57 AM<BR><B>To:</B> freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG; 'Eric Six'<BR><B>Subject:</B> DNS<BR><BR></DIV></FONT></FONT> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good Morning,</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here is my question.......My ISP hosts my DNS for routable addresses, I would, however, like to set up a non-microsoft DNS server for my LAN, which is using non-routable addresses....What is the best way to accomplishing this?
