Thanks to all for the helpful feedback.
I don't think we have the basis for a talk, yet, but it's good
information regardless, and I appreciate it.

I'm hoping to learn a bit more about DNS.
I get it in theoretical terms, but the devil is in the details.
Let's say I have my website atwww.mycompany.com
The MX record points to my email provider somehow, and that seems to be
easy enough to set up.
But how about having SIP calls to go to my PBX (which may or may not have
a hostname)?
There are a few things that I can't quite get the hang of:
1. should I give my PBX a hostname such as pbx.mycompany.com?
2. should I make that a zone, and run a DNS server on my PBX?
3. how do I getsip:[email protected] to go
tosip:[email protected]?
4. should I just have the main DNS handle sip requests with the IP
address of my PBX, and forget about the zone/server pbx.mycompany.com?
5. should I be giving all my devices a hostname? do I allow those
hostnames to be handled by DNS? what about NAT and security?
I'm not looking for answers to all this in an email per se, but more
asking if somebody is willing to do a talk for us that might help
demystify all this?
BTW, even though I am clearly not qualified to speak on this topic, I'm
a pretty quick study, I have experience with both speaking and training,
and so would be more than willing to do some of the grunt work and
presentation work necessary to present this to the group, if that helps
any of you who have the know-how, but perhaps aren't comfortable
speaking to an audience.
