I set up my SOHO server to be a router/gateway to the net, firewall, DHCP
server, DNS server and backup server for my lan.
I set up bind9 and isc-dhcp to support DDNS, but I am struggling to get
hostname resolution working on the server for the lan clients.
The server has two NICs - one for lan on 192.168.0.3, and one that obtains its
public IP address via pppoe from the broadband provider (which shouldn't be
serving DNS outwards but needs configuring not to).
options {
listen-on { 198.158/16; 127.0.0.1; };
listen-on-v6 { <internal address range>; ::1; };
};
So that will tell bind to serve 127.0.0.1, but don't I need to
configure linux to go to 127.0.0.1 for DNS, since at the moment it
isn't, according to resolv.conf, it's going to the OpenDNS servers:
>>
adam@gondor:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 81.139.56.100
nameserver 81.139.57.100
domain localdomain
search localdomain
adam@gondor:~$
and that is generated by pppd when it connects. I'm guessing now
but presumably I have to tell pppd to add 127.0.0.1 to the other
nameservers - the server wants to see the lan as well as the outside world.
So you configure your lan-side NIC to use localhost (or its own
ip-address) as first dns. Nothing to do with bind.

Nope, can't.
