Ah, yes. I understand the confusion. What I meant to say is: I wanted to have two physical DNS servers instead of four physical servers, each supporting private and public data instead of four physical servers. I have two public (static) IP addresses, so that if one physical server goes down, the other physical server can continue to serve DNS queries. Hope that is clear. Thanks for the information regarding "views". I will certainly look into this!
