However, assuming you are using views on the same IP address and not

appear in both internal and external views refer back to the same zone
file, then when you update that zone file both views are updated.

My understanding has been that two views that are masters for
a zone can safely share a zone file if the zone isn't dynamic (e.g.
dnsupdate, dnssec auto signing, etc), but that two views of
a slave zone shouldn't do that: you could have two
different views independently rewriting the same file, a bad thing even
if the files are known to be identical. Furthermore, allowing that could
conceivably show no problems very much of the time, masking the actual
risk.

If I'm wrong, that would be a good thing to know.
