I have another tricky DNS question. I'm scream testing my new dnsbl server and I'm going to open it up for others to use soon. Just working out the final details.

So - here's my tricky question. I have 2 DNS servers. Server A runs MyDNS - a MySQL driven server. It's the one that does the work behind the scenes. It has no caching and should be considered to be slow.

Server B is a regular DNS server set up for caching and running BIND. It's the one that will be the public face for the blacklist providing caching for Server A so as not to load down Server A.

So what I want is that Server B secretly knows where Server A is so that any request of dnsbl.junkemailfilter.com goes to Server B and Server B passes the request on to Server A and caches it reducing the load on Server A and keeling it hidden from the world.

So - how do I do that? What do I put in named.conf to tell it to route certain requests to a Server A?

Thanks in advance.
