Ah, yes.  I understand the confusion.  What I meant to say is:

I wanted to have two physical DNS servers instead of four
physical servers, each supporting private and public data
instead of four physical servers.  I have two public (static)
IP addresses, so that if one physical server goes down, the
other physical server can continue to serve DNS queries.

Hope that is clear.

Thanks for the information regarding "views". I will certainly
look into this!
