Maintaining hosts files on 14 machines sucks. :-)
I want to setup a DNS server internally to do both forward (kyle -> 10.0.0.4) and reverse (10.0.0.4 -> kyle) DNS.
I want the primary on one debian box, then a slave on another ... then I'll set up a virtual server internally on the bigip so 10.2.0.1:53 is always an alive DNS server.
I'm trying to set it up but I'm not sure how to do the reverse stuff. Doesn't seem to work:
Update: Got it working... thanks to
