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.

Hi...

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?

Greg
