Subject: Setting up DNS without domain
Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2003 00:35:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030812223545.GA1046@linux> (raw)

Hello!

Since the DNS's of my ISP is constantly going down, I want to set up my
own using BIND (except if you have any other recommendations). The
problem is that all howtos I've found is based around having a domain,
which I don't. Is this a prerequisite of running a DNS, or can
you use a bogus domain (like youareamunch.kinlloyd which probably isn't 
already in use) or perhaps just your IP?

Another question: Do you recommend chrooting BIND?

Thanks in advance!
/Peter
