Hi all Thank you for your help. I successfully setup BIND on the new box and I find it amazing how this has increased the overal speed of our network. I removed the isp's dns on all of the boxes and pointed them all to my own nameserver (including the nameserver itself) In combination with the listen-on port 53 <local-ip> we are keeping it private. I just wanted to reply to a remark of someone that it isn't good to have two nics on the same network if they are not binded? Could you comment on that please. We basically choose that setup to not be forced to replace our 10/100 router, to have internal speed at 1000mbits, and to provide redundancy for the server, so in the case that the switch is not functioning, the server is still able to fullfull its httpd services.
