[cobalt-users] [Qube2]Setting up as a Secondary DNS Server?

["James Hoaggs" <james_hoaggs@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, we are setting up 2 qube2's and want one as a secondary DNS. The
archives did not have an article that takes this by the horns with the
Qubes so I'm giving it a try here.  The GUI doen't seem to work since
the only options are Add Secondary Forward Domain & Add Sedcondary Reverse
Domain, which we believe (?) is to identify a secondary domain on a Primary
and got no results when we tried to use it. If we properly set up /etc/named.conf
on the secondary, then the sec zone files should flow from the primary,
but when we do, no new files are created on the secondary.  Here's our
/etc/named.conf:
options { directory "/etc/named"; };
zone "." { type hint; file "db.cache"; };
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "pri.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa;
};
zone "x.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa" { type slave; file "sec.xxx.xxx.x"; masters
{xxx.xxx.x.xxx;}; };
zone "domain.cxm" { type slave; file "sec.domain.cxm"; masters { xxx.xxx.x.xxx;};
};
All we did was add the 2 last zones above and then did /etc/rc.d/init.d/named
restart.  If it was set up correctly, we would have new files created
in /etc/named and be able to do nslookup www xxx.xxx.x.xxx but somewhere
we messed up. These machines are on an Intranet without I-net access.
Thanks for helping.
