So long as your DNS server has a public facing IP Address (firewall'd, or direct on the machine) you can set it up as a DNS for domains (sample.com), then, wherever you've registered your domain through, you set that domain to use that DNS.
You can contact your registrar and have the DNS server added to the root servers (not as a root server) so they know it's there. This makes life easier to have a registered DNS server. Now, "pushing" your zone changes out to slaves will happen automatically, and you can hope your TTL is listened to. It's a simple thing, really. You'll want to NAT UDP Port 53 to your DNS server, and configure it to feed zone files out for your domain(s). -Will On Wed, Jan 12, 2011 at 10:16 PM, Make Compile <[email protected]>wrote: > Tnx for the reply.
