Hmmm,
If you're using your DNS server as a firewall, you need to reevaluate your security
stratagy.
It's best not "move" your firewall. Since you have DNS AND firewall services running
on the same box, Id assume you were running BSD, or some flavor of 'IX" so I'd just
build a new firewall at the new location (make sure Firewall is the only service the
box performs). Then build the LAN behind it.
For External DNS, if you want simplicity, get your bandwidth provider (probably your
ISP) to provide DNS services to your domain. Let them take care of the paperwork
*grin*
If your ISP provides DNS for you, all you need to do is allow UDP port 53 through your
firewall to your ISP's DNS server.
hope this is a little help anyway...
cheers..

Hi;
I am moving a firewall to another location and need to find out what are the
steps to
do this with also keeping the existing fireawall until all the users are
moved to the new location firewall. The exsiting firewall is the primary DNS
server for its domain.
How could I achive this with minimal effect on users? How do I configure
external DNS?
-regards,
HP
