Hey, I'm runing Debian etch with BIND9 on it. I'm following the aboutdebian.com tutorial on DNS server. I'm intending to set up my Desktop Debian box as the DNS server for the LAN dns server and Internet Name Resolution server(The IP address of the Desktop used in preffered name server for each work station's TCP/IP configuration)
Just as an FYI, the "dnsmasq" package does a very good job of this and is easier to set up. Learning how to manage BIND is a worthy goal in its own right, though.
