Question Bind


Ok I think I am getting somewhere but of course I am getting somewhere that I have little knowledge. For my ease of use I use Webmin to admin my Linux machine. I am running slackware 10 and Bind 9
All i want to do is to be able to see the websites hosted on this machine.
When I am outside the home network i can see them fine
However at home I cannot
If I edit the hosts file on my XP machine I can see them but I do not want to have to do this
The router is a Linksys wireless G router
What should i setup in BIND to get this to work? is there another program i should use? I just need it to server the internal computers
[Also i did set the IP settings of my windows box to use the internal DNS server as the primary DNS server and a DNS server of my ISP for the other and still nothing]

Ok lets summarize.

You have one or several domains hosted on a box in a VPN network. For these domains, you have dns entries on a dns server somewhere on internet that point to your router's public IP. Your router is set up to forward port 80 on the machine hosting the web server. When you try to acces these domains from your local network, you get redirected to your router config webserver (if it has one).

The solution I have here is (:
- set your local DNS server as primary server for all machines (at least those that should get access to the local web server) on your local network
- in your DNS server, declare primary zones for each domain hosted locally pointing to the local IP on your LAN and forward all other DNS requests to your router/isp/other DNS server (see "forwarders" config parameter in bind9 global config).
