win2k3 DNS: possible to do event horizon DNS? |
|
|
Is it possible to have host records for which my DNS server is not
authoritative? My DNS is authorative for xxx.domain.com but not for
domain.com.
The purpose would be to redirect queries that would normally traverse a
NAT'ed public IP address to an internal one directly. Apparently this is
called "Event Horizon DNS"
I could add entries to the hosts file for each machine, but I prefer to do
it centrally from a DNS server.
For example, instead of
LAN client -> DNS resolves to public ip -> NAT internal ip
LAN client -> DNS resolves to internal ip |

Use this example, you host www.domain.com on a local web server, but you
don't host any other services in domain.com.
You would add a new forward lookup zone named www.domain.com then in that
zone create one new host "A" record, leave the name field blank, give it the
IP of the local web server. (Win2k barks at you saying (same as parent
folder) is not a valid host name, click OK to create the record anyway)
Is that the question?

Yes that's what I was looking for.
Thank you.
