[cobalt-users] DNS Help



Hey All,

I am just wondering if someone could give me a quick explanation of the
steps to take to get 2 RaQ4s to act as a primary and secondary DNS servers.
Lets use for the explanation:

 ns1.domain.com >> 192.0.0.2 and ns2.domain.com >> 192.0.0.3

What are all the settings I have to put in? Please fill in the gaps :-D

Server 1 ( ns1.domain.com >> 192.0.0.2 )

Control Panel > Network:

    Host Name: ns1
    Domain Name: domain.com
    Primary DNS Server Address: 192.0.0.2
    Secondary DNS Server Address: 192.0.0.3
    Default Gateway: 192.0.0.1

Control Panel > DNS Sever:

DNS Server Settings

    Forwarding Server: ???????????
    Backup Forwarding Server: ?????????
    Zone Transfer Access: ?????????
    Zone Format: RFC2317

What else do I have to set up in the way of records or Secondary Servers
here?

Server 2 ( ns2.domain.com >> 192.0.0.3 )

Control Panel > Network:

    Host Name: ns2
    Domain Name: domain.com
    Primary DNS Server Address: 192.0.0.2
    Secondary DNS Server Address: 192.0.0.3
    Default Gateway: 192.0.0.1

Control Panel > DNS Sever:

DNS Server Settings

    Forwarding Server: ???????????
    Backup Forwarding Server: ?????????
    Zone Transfer Access: ?????????
    Zone Format: RFC2317

What else do I have to set up in the way of records or Secondary Servers
here?

Do I have to set up any special sites either?
