First, this should be a new post, as it has different questions than the original.

2nd, you can do what you propose, but the only people who will be able to see those sites will be on your LAN. As you have already seen, with a single address, and your router serving a web page at that address, you'll never get past the router at port 80. You could run the sites on different ports (1 per machine), and forward traffic to those ports through the router to the correct internal address.

You could also turn off webadmin, and then you could forward port 80 to any one computer behind the router.

For named itself, you need to add zones into named.conf, and then add the zone itself into wherever your installation stores zone files. Once that it done, your internal BIND will give the local IP address of those sites to your LAN. You also have to reload/restart BIND once you make those changes, before they will take effect.

thanks for the answer. I can't turn off the webadmin interface and yes my websites can be seen from outside the LAN with no problem. The one that has the problem it;s me because I don't know how to request virtualhosts directly to the server using a browser.
What I need exactly what you said, my nameserver to send internal users to the correct virtualhosts. I added the zone with the file describing the domain and reset bind, but it did not work. when I DIG the domain from my pc, bind keeps on querying the external dns. This is what I added:

named.conf

view "external-192" {
// you could use 'any' or even 'localnets' here
// instead of specifying each IP range
// however, it should be noted that 'localnets'
// means ANY network Bind is directly connected
// to which might include your ISP
match-clients { 192.168.11.0/29; 127/8; };
zone "11.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "pz/192.168.11";
allow-update {
none;
};
};
zone "mydomain.biz" {
type master;
file "pz/mydomain.biz";
allow-update {
none;
};
};
};

and this is the mydomain.biz file

$TTL 1D

@ 1D IN SOA localhost. root.localhost. (
42 ;serial (d. adams)
3H ;refresh
15M ;retry
1W ;expiry
1D ) ;minimun

mydomain.biz A 192.168.11.3
www CNAME mydomain.biz

I have a little idea of what I did but I'm not a pro. 192.168.11.3 is the localhost and apache server by the way. Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

This should be a new thread, as it has NOTHING to do with the original post.

ok I'll put a new one.
