Re: [cobalt-users] Configuring 2nd Raq for doing secondary DNS

[Admin <admin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Gerald,

Sorry, I worded my question so poorly. I was referring to settup up a
secondary name server on a 2nd RAQ, not secondary dns for a domain. I'll try
again and hopefully do a better job of explaining...

I'm trying to properly configure the settings on a 2nd RAQ to handle
secondary name services..(Raq#1 does primary DNS, Raq#2 does secondary DNS
for Raq#1. All domains on both Raqs use the primary DNS on Raq#1.)

On the Raq#2, do I:

1. Enable DNS on it?
2. List the Raq#1 as the primary DNS?
3. List the Raq#2 as the secondary DNS?

Will this make the 2nd box a slave name server that will retrieve the DNS
information from the primary, or, do I need to manually enter records on the
2nd box for each domain's DNS handled on the primary?

Thanks for any help,

David
