set up your dns on internal ip address of your LAN, eg. 192.168.1.1.=20
In the options section of /etc/namedb/named.conf file, or wherever you =
have installed the conf file add:

        forwarders { 206.13.28.12; 206.13.31.12; }; // Ip addresses of =
your isp
        query-source port 53;
//      query-source address 192.168.1.1 port 53;   // one or the other, =
line above it.
//      allow-query { any; };
        listen-on {
                192.168.1.1;      // internal DNS server address
                127.0.0.1;        // loopback address=20
     };

Now your inernal machines can pickup 192.168.1.1 as their name server, =
and your internal name server should be able to ask your isp if it =
doesn't know the name request.

Patrick Soltani.

I was wondering if someone could help me out.  I'm just started using
freebsd (well, unix in general) and im trying to set up a dns server.

The server is connected to a dsl modem/router.  I'm not sure which IP
address to create a zone for, the dsl modem's ip address (which is the
one the internet sees) or the server's IP address.  Can someone help me =
out?
