I don't know if it exists for free for you, too, but our provider supports "HIDDEN PRIMARY" name servers. We just configure a name server in our network and tell him our IP address for that machine. That he transfers the zones to his name servers and provide internet reachable name services for all our domains and subdomains.I've been told I can use these free third party domain name servers. I've also been told that you need to keep a record with at least 2 domain name servers when hosting a domain name. While, I can do this, I'd like to host at least one DNS at home.Now, I'm completely confused if this can be done and if it can, then how to do it.
The FreeBSD handbook seems pretty straight-forward in setting up BIND. However, I don't know how to distinguish more than one domain name whenIt's easy when you use hidden primaries and forward requests you cannot answer by yourself.
using only one IP address. Also, is it possible for the home DNS and the
third party DNS's to work in tandem?
