I need manual howto setup internal secondary DNS server

['chris']

hi

I need exact manual howto setup secondary DNS server using DDNS on the internal network.

config from Master:

.....
options {

auth-nxdomain yes;

# The directory statement defines the name server's
# working directory

directory "/var/lib/named";

check-names master warn;

statistics-interval 0;
cleaning-interval 720;

datasize default;
stacksize default;
coresize default;
files unlimited;
recursion yes;

#multiple-cnames no;

# The forwarders record contains a list of servers to
# which queries should be forwarded. Enable this line and
# modify the IP-address to your provider's name server.
# Up to three servers may be listed.

forwarders { X.X.X.X; X.X.X.X; X.X.X.X; };

# Enable the next entry to prefer usage of the name
# server declared in the forwarders section.

forward first;

# The listen-on record contains a list of local network
# interfaces to listen on. Optionally the port can be
# specified. Default is to listen on all interfaces found
# on your system. The default port is 53.

#listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; };
listen-on port 53 { 10.40.1.10; };
heartbeat-interval 2880;

# The listen-on-v6 record enables or disables listening
# on IPV6 interfaces. Allowed values are 'any' and 'none'
# or a list of addresses. IPv6 can only be used with
# kernel 2.4 in this release.

listen-on-v6 { any; };

# The next three statements may be needed if a firewall
# stands between the local server and the internet.

#query-source address * port 53;
#transfer-source * port 53;
#notify-source * port 53;

# The allow-query record contains a list of networks or
# IP-addresses to accept and deny queries from. The
# default is to allow queries from all hosts.

#allow-query { 127.0.0.1; };

# If notify is set to yes (default), notify messages are
# sent to other name servers when the the zone data is
# changed. Instead of setting a global 'notify' statement
# in the 'options' section, a separate 'notify' can be
# added to each zone definition.

notify no;
};

.....
zone "." in {
type hint;
file "root.hint";
};


zone "localhost" in {
type master;
file "localhost.zone";
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" in {
type master;
file "127.0.0.zone";
};
