Why do you need two masters? Can't one master and one slave forwarding
updates (if you're using DDNS) do?

Anyway, if you *do* need a dual master setup, this isn't functionality
provided natively by BIND. You'll have to transfer the zone files
using some out-of-band mechanism like rsync over ssh.

And what do you do if you find yourself having two conflicting
updates? I'm just curious.

this is very unfair and insulting to the beasts: a beast can never be
so cruel as a man, so ingeniously, so artistically cruel.''
