DNS in HMC 3.5 - Web Hosting India - Server Colocation - Dedicated Server Hosting

Shanky · #1 (**permalink**) 09-17-2006, 08:06 PM

I'm setting up a consolidated platform, but I've gotten a little lost in DNS.

With the Backnet DNS on the AD01 (and AD02, as I want 2) you set the DNS to deny recusrion, and delete the root hints.

On the FE server you set the Frontnet NIC to use its internal DNS server, and the Backnet NIC to use the AD01 DNS.

So here's where I am lost.

How does the FE server get DNS updates for internet clients?

Are the Backnet Servers DNS all pointing to the AD DNS? I expect so, or they won't be able to register in the AD DNS properly. As they are pointing to a Local only DNS, they can't get on the net. Is the intent of this foe security? Doesn't it mandate the use of a WSUS server?

Is the stripping of the backnet DNS to save load on the AD server? With 2 AD servers, and 2 DNS on the backnet, am I ok to leave them able to use forwarders?

I'm thinking I can do what I want, but I'm also guessing there's a reason for doing it this way...

Hello Shanky,

Your question is quite complicated but I try to keep DNS as simple as possible to avoid complications. Your first entry in /etc/resolv.conf gets top most priority and that entry should be of some public DNS server to ensure proper functioning of Domain system. If you have no mention of public DNS IP in your /etc/resolv.conf

If you can provide some more clarifications then it would be quite easy for us to give you desired solution.
