My public dns is done by my ISP. I set up an internal dns server on a
Redhat Linux ver 9 box. I made the internal domain the same name as the
public domain name. I can resolve all internal names that are in the
internal dns database. Via "." hints file, I can resolve all public names
except my own public names. I presume this is because my internal dns
server is "authoritative" for my domain and as a result, if the name is
not in one of its zones, it does not go to the root servers.
I thought if I put a forwarder statement in the named.custom file, this is
the Linux way of doing it, I could resolve my public names using my ISP's
dns. This just made it so the internal dns server would not work at all.
Have I done this incorrectly? Any ideas will be welcome.
Regards,
Tom
