How to configure bind as a private network DNS server on?
Before all of your servers in the “trusted” ACL can query your DNS servers, you must configure each of them to use ns1 and ns2 as nameservers. This process varies depending on OS, but for most Linux distributions it involves adding your name servers to the /etc/resolv.conf file.
Why do we need a BIND9 DNS server?
The BIND DNS servers help to translate website names to IP addresses and vice versa. However, the installation steps of BIND can be confusing to many users. That’s why we help customers to set up DNS servers as a part of our Server Management Services. Today, we’ll see how our Support Engineers install Bind9 DNS server.
Where do I find the BIND9 configuration file?
Usually, all configuration files for BIND will be located in /etc/bind folder. Moving on, we configure the Bind9 server. We begin by tweaking the file /etc/bind/named.conf.options. In this file, we make changes like: Next, we create the zone files for our domains in the /etc/bind folder.
Which is a fully qualified FQDN for bind?
With these assumptions, we decide that it makes sense to use a naming scheme that uses “nyc3.example.com” to refer to our private subnet or zone. Therefore, host1 ’s private Fully-Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) will be host1.nyc3.example.com. Refer to the following table the relevant details:
Can you have both versions of bind on the same server?
With BIND, as possibly other implementations, you can have both versions of the zone on the same server through a use of the “allow-query” statement within the zone section of the named.conf file.
Is the internal domain the same as the external website?
Our internal domain name is called “abc.com” and our company website is called “abc.com”. I have created an “A” record that points to www.abc.com so staff can browse the website from within the office. The problem is that if people enter “abc.com” from a web browser with the office it does not resolve in an efficient manner.
How to setup internal and external DNS namespaces?

Are there any disadvantages to using BIND DNS?
They have to depend on Network Engineers to configure DNS for their environments. The following are disadvantages common to BIND and other first-generation DNS servers like PowerDNS and Microsoft DNS:
How to configure bind as a DNS caching server?

Which is the latest version of BIND DNS?
DNSSEC – the latest version of BIND supports cyptographic authentication of DNS information through DNSSEC extensions (defined in RFC 4033, 4034, 4035) IPv6 – BIND enables the use of AAAA records to translate hostnames to new IPv6 IP addresses
Where to find DNS settings in Microsoft 365?
