Well, one is the master and the other is a slave for any locally defined domains, but otherwise both get the same setup. You can tell them your ISP DNS servers are root servers, so you do not have to keep track of roots yourself. Everything asked of your servers they cannot answer is passed to the ISP without want-recursion, and the answers come back directly, ask this root, which you cache for as long as it is marked, so you do not become a pest.

Since basic DNS is insecure, you want to bone up on secure dns products.

NAME
desproxy-dns - DNS for dynamic connections SYNOPSIS
desproxy-dns dns_server proxy_host proxy_port OPTIONS
None DESCRIPTION
If you have direct DNS access then you don't need to do anything else. You know you have direct DNS access if you can resolve host names to IP addresses. NOTE: as desproxy-dns listens in port 53 (which is less than 1024) you may need administrator privileges to exec desproxy-dns (in fact if you are running UN*X, you actually have to run desproxy-dns as root). OK, so you have a dns server accessible now. But your computer doesn't know anything about that. You must configure your network accordingly (again, need to be root in UN*X). Edit /etc/resolv.conf and add the line "nameserver 127.0.0.1". You don't have to restart anything. Just test ping and see if it works. ENVIRONMENT
