My suggestion would be to have PCI's DNS point to things that are going to be in the DMZ (ftp and www). Then pointers for everything else should be in a DNS behind the firewall. Also, we should have NAT and/or a proxy in or behind the firewall/router. Finally, all the internal IP addresses should be private (numbers that cannot be forwarded on the Internet) such as the 90.0.0.0 to .255 range with a 255.255.255.0 subnet.

This question has been asked n number of times on
this list. but after searching through the archives
it has confused us more as there are numerous
threads and its difficult to follow multiple
threads

Firewall---Webserver(aka dmz)
|
Internal Network
A typical set up. The internal network has its own
"internal" DNS but the hosts have 10.x.x.x
addresses.
now the question. where do I place the DNS server.
what if I place it on the same host as Webserver on
the DMZ. This DNS server would be the name server
for the domain hosted by the firewall... correct..
?
and next , is there a way so that sitting on the
web server one could access hosts in the internal
network by name... how can this be achieved... ?
this is the hard part.
thanks and please email me
