Haven't done it but don't see why not. Since every entry in named.conf specifies the zone file you can definitely have multiple zones all pointing to the same zone file. (We do that for many ancillary zones that we want to point to our primary domain so have an aliases file that uses the @ designation instead of hard coded domain names.)
-----Original Message----- From: bind-users-bounces+jlightner=water....@lists.isc.org [mailto:bind-users-bounces+jlightner=water....@lists.isc.org] On Behalf Of John Wobus Sent: Friday, March 04, 2011 11:46 AM To: bind-users Subject: Slaves and views Hi, Can a zone file a slave in one view and the same zone file be served by another view? I'm going to split our authoritative servers into internal and external views. My question concerns zones that we secondary for other organizations, slaved to masters at their sites. I know I could configure each of their zones with separate files in each the two views, listen/use an additional address that accesses our local view, and tell these peer organizations to notify and allow transfers from this additional address. I'm not (yet) worried about dynamic updates, if there are any. Is there a way I can handle their zones without making these other sites configure another address, and I still run just one bind instance? Other ideas are: running a separate bind instance for these zones, or making one view a slave to the other. Possibly forwarding of some kind, another thing I haven't done much.
