Thanks for all your answers, guys. But the thing is that I am currently
using a permanent mapping and the MS DNS domains are defined in the private
ip address although the firewall maps it to a public address externally. I
can't query the dns server from the outside world.Do I need to do something
else to make it work ? However zone transfer to the dnssec1.singnet.com.sg
and dnssec2 seems to work. I was thinking of removing the delegation to my
dns server hq.sbs.com.sg making it a sort of 'stealth' master config. will
this work ?
Another question. Right now I am thinking of converting the MS DNS to BIND.
I understand that 8.2.2 supports the NT platform. Is there support for WINS
as well ? If not, is there any way to integrate the WINS with the BIND DNS
service ? This will be for my internal DNS setup.
Thanks again.
