Hi thanks again for quick reply.
Do I understand right? Would it be accurate if i put an authoritative
DNS server and QMT on separate computers?
Correct. And do put a DNS resolver (aka caching nameserver) on QMT.

Hey Marek,
Using Bind is fine, but using a single server/process for both
authoritative and resolver purposes is not a good practice. It can be
done, but I would try very hard to keep them separate before
endeavoring to put them together. It can be done, but it's a bit
tricky to do well (accurately and securely).
If at all possible, I would use an authoritative DNS server that's
external to QMT, then simply install the caching-nameserver package on
QMT to use as a resolver. You should also modify the resolver's
configuration to use forwarders, but that's not absolutely necessary.
caching-nameserver configuration should work ok as is.
Martin, do you have anything to add? (Sorry for jumping in again)
