Hello, looking for a sanity check.
Inside our network we are running BIND 9.18.28-0ubuntu0.22.04.1-Ubuntu on
Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
Currently our server serves our own zones files - A/CNAME/PTR/TXT/etc records
for our domain.
We have already modified the db.cache file to reference two servers provided by
our corporate IT rather than using the internet root servers.
We have numerous forwarder zones for corporate zones, both forward and reverse
zones.
We are looking to no longer use recursion but rely entirely on the corporate
servers for anything we would normally resolve from external servers.
I think all we need to do is create a forwarders stanza set "forwarder only" ,
similar to(but with the correct IPS)
forwarders {
1.2.3.4; # External DNS
1.2.3.5; # External DNS
};
forward only;
The desire is to continue to use our own zone files, and to continue to use the
already established fowarder zones, but to replace recursion managed by our own
internal servers with queries to ONLY the 2 servers we are already using as
replacement root servers.
Seems so simple that I have to believe I've missed something.
Thanks in advance,
Brian
