That has been my config for quite a looong time now :)
In my case I even "slave" the whole root zone by setting up the DNS
to fetch (as/when needed) a full copy of the root zone from one of the
root servers; this spares the DNS a "hop" since instead of having to
go out and query the root servers for the auth DNS for a given TLD it
will just have the info right there :)
For BIND the config is more or less as follows
// forward root zone
zone "." {
type slave;
file "root-fwd.db";
notify yes;
masters {
192.5.5.241;
192.228.79.201;
192.33.4.12;
};
};
// reverse root zone
zone "in-addr.arpa" {
type slave;
file "root-rev.db";
notify yes;
masters {
192.5.5.241;
192.33.4.12;
};
};
for Windows DNS it's the same, just create the two zones "." and
"in-addr.arpa" as secondary ones and specify the above master
DNS servers into the "masters" list; wait for the DNS to transfer the
zone and you will be up and running :)
Notice that the above trick may/will also work for some DNSBL
and/or URIBL zones in case you wanto to keep a local copy of
those and reduce the query times ;-)
