Yah zone files for your internal static ips. A slave dns server as a backup for the box you are working on. And most likely a change to your dhcp server to tell all those Windows boxes where to get there DNS.

Thanks for your reply. My questions on this are as follows: 1. The 2nd NIC's IP address is 10.0.0.1 for the internal machines. Would my named.conf look like this: options { directory "/var/named"; }; ; zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa"{ type master; file "named.local"; }; zone "." { type hint; file ""; }; Or should it be for 10.0.0.1 instead of 127.0.0.1? 2. The /etc/resolv.conf file should be as follows with my server as the caching server? search mydomain.com nameserver 10.0.0.1 nameserver ISP backup 1 IP nameserver ISP backup 2 IP Is there anything else I need to setup?
