<div dir="rtl"><div dir="ltr">Hi,</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">After big frustration from some DNS providers, I've decided to roll my own with servers here in Israel, Ireland, and 2 US servers.</div><div dir="ltr">
I've configured the Master in Israel and the rest are slaves.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I threw some domains, and the sync works great.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">My problem is simple: The server in Israel answer queries from the world, but should the slaves answer too? </div>
<div dir="ltr">If not, what happens when the master goes down?</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I checked some big names servers (like Yahoo) - their servers don't answer any queries.</div><div dir="ltr"><br>
</div><div dir="ltr">So should the slave server be configured not to answer any query from outside?</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">(I know it's a non issue in corporates where you can configure both master and slave answer from internal IP's, but here there are no internal IP's).</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Thanks,</div><div dir="ltr">Hetz</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div>
