Bind 8.1.2 and Forward feature

[Andre Machado_1]

Hi,

I??d like to use the "Forward by Zone" feature
on Bind 8.1.2, but the feature don??t work.

I need set one forward to Internet, and another
forward ( by zone ) I??m seting to specific server on my network. This zone is "rsfn.net.br", this zone exist on Internet, but I need search this zone INTERNAL ONLY ( on my DNS server ).

The DNS ??8.1.2, dont??work when I set configuration zone, only work??s when I set Hint??s ( db.cache ).

My Named.conf:

// generated by named-bootconf.pl

options {
check-names response fail; // do not change this
check-names slave warn;
/*forwardes { 200.224.24.1; 200.224.254.2; 200.176.13.9 }*/
directory "/etc/named.data"; // running directory for named
/*
* If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
* to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source
* directive below. Previous versions of BIND always asked
* questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged
* port by default.
*/
// query-source address * port 53;
};

//
// type domain source file
//

zone "rsfn.net.br" {
type forward;
forward only;
forwarders { 200.218.81.182; };
};


zone "." {
type hint;
file "db.cache";
};


Can you help me?

Hi Andre,
I have never use
type forward;
It is either master or server.
I am waiting from someone to answer this.
