OK, but why? (Not a big deal, just curious.) >Thus, in order for my local users to access our mail server, >mail.varsitycontractors.com, dns must map to a private 10.x.x.x, while my >remote users will need dns to map them to a public IP via the same hostname. I'm not so sure. You could, for example, have it map only to the public IP, and allow port 25/110/143 (smtp/pop/imap) traffic out from your office only to that single IP address. Since it's on the same box, your users still don't get out to the Internet. From the above, no reason you *must* have the name on an internal IP. >I'm told I need split dns, but I'm having trouble getting it to work.

BIND 9 has "views" which allow you to present different information to people coming from different points. You'll have to read the docs, though, as I don't yet know how to do it. There seems to be finally a manual or book for BIND 9 on the ISC's website that you can download. -- Rodolfo J.
