Can I use multi-purpose servers for authoritative bind dns servers?

I have two remote servers: (1) one with one IP (used mainly for backups) which is planned to be an OpenStreetmap tile server and (2) one with five IP addresses used for serving my personal websites with Apache and planned to be a mail server. Note I am currently running mostly static sites but am

Need DNS records help for single server (and IP), and multi-domain mail server.

I have a single remote server with one IP address (142.54.186.2) I am using it to host multiple, independent domains. I am working on configuring a single postfix instance to serve mail for all domains (assuming I can successfully rewrite appropriate parts of mail in and out). >From referring to

How does one install bind9 from source and set it up to work with systemd? I copied a bind9.service file from a Debian 9 package installation but I think it's more complicated than that. Thanks. -Tom ___ Please visit

Bind DNS servers: can they coexist with httpd and mail servers?

I want to host my own DNS servers, but I need the master to share Bind with other services, specifically Apache 2.4, Postfix 3.3, and Mailman 3. Is there any reason that is not possible? If not, are there any problems or configuration issues I will need to address? Thanks. With warmest

Request reverse dns mapping advice

I have two remote servers, one with one IPv4 address, and one with five IPv4 addresses. My ISP will provide reverse mapping for all if I provide the desired rDNS record for each address. The rDNS record for the one-address server is not a problem, but I would appreciate opinions on the choice of

rndc on local host: need named running?

My plan is to have two remote, authoritative name servers (master and slave) for my owned domains. I would like to use rndc to control them from my local host. A couple of questions: 1. Does named need to be running on the local host? 2. Can I use rndc from my local host which doesn't have a

Allowable reverse mapping zone file names

Can I run two name servers on one host with two IP addresses?
