here's one suggestion as to DNS...i'm not sure what
you want exactly though, so here's a general layout:
DNS SERVER1 DNS2
| |
----+----------------------+--
FIREWALL
--------------------------------
| | |
| | +----+
| | | INTERNAL DNS
+-----+----+ |
| | | |
PC PC PC PC
so this is a realy simplified diagram,
my point is that you can
1. setup your external dns (1 or two of them)
visible from the internet..this will serve
your domain as well
2. your internal LAN can query these DNS
directly or they can talk to a local DNS
server and that DNS can forward requests
to your outside DNS (Or to the internet).
Setup local host names also. for example
pc1.i.domain.com pc2.i.domain.com, etc...
setup your pc's so that their search domain
would be i.domain.com first, then domain.com then
the internet. point each of this clients
to your DNS server (heck put them on the DHCP
table that you hand out to the clients).
Map out a reverse mapping also for the local
hosts so you wont have a problem for services
that almost hang without reverse maps (telnet, ftp and
such)..fill up the IN-ADDR.ARPA properly for
local DNS.
dont know yet what to suggest, without knowing
yur setup..
take this advice with a lot of grain of salt,
my only experience is with a home network
(about 5-10 hosts).
