Search Again: Migrating from MACDNS--Where are my parents? From: Peter Hilts Date: Saturday, December 28, 2002 Time: 10:30:55 am Scenario. I'm new in a school district runnning MacDNS. We are bogging down, running on an old system. So.... I have installed QDNS 4 on an Xserve on a 100T connection through a switch then router to our T1. We do have a firewall, but it allows DNS traffic to flow both ways unobstructed. The router and T1 are much slower than the Xserve, so bandwidth should not be an issue. I can define internal addresses and aliases. When I set and internal machine to query the Xserve for addresses, it pulls the internals just fine. What I don't know how to do, and what is not evident to me in the manual, is to set my ISP's resover as the "Parent" server. I have both the Name and number of the Qwest ;-( server that is currently resolving for our MacDNS box. From the Xserve I can ping, tracerout, NSLookup etc... Without any problem to the the Qwest resolver. How do I point my zone to look to Qwest for DN Service? Or in MacDNS-speak, what is the equivalent of a Parent server in QDNS? Thanks for any help..
