Better yet, Jeremiah, do a little reading on the Web or buy "DNS and
BIND" at your local bookstore. Nothing you do (web, mail, FTP) will work
without DNS, which makes it automatically a Very Important Service (tm).
If both DNS are on the same machine or network, and the machine or
network goes down, people will receive answers that the domain doesn't
exist. This is *very* different from having the webserver down and
having the browser say the page is temporarily unavailable. It's also
very bad for your income and job security.
