Re: [webmin-l] Private DNS server

[<cam...@cn...>]

Jamie,

Wow, the view thing is totally new to me. I have the old O'Reilly. I believe my
Tao boxes have Bind 9 as a default.

I assume you are talking about the main bind webmin module and not the bind 9
webmin module, so I'll take a look tomorrow when I get back to work.

Can my view zones on this new server be the same zones as those on the public
DNS servers? Can I have my cnpapers.com zone published to the public ethernet on
my public DNS servers with my 216.30.205.* addresses and redefined it on the
private DNS server as 10.* addresses? Have I described this as you mean it?

Could you correct me if I have stated any of this inaccurately, please?

Thanks for Webmin, the fast reply, and the knowledge you distribute so frequently.
