Configuring BIND on dynamic IP??

Configuring BIND on dynamic IP??

Hello to all,my request here is directed to everyone with experience on network
administration and in particular to somebody with enough skill on BIND.

Foreword:

My network is very strange,or at least atipical and,briefly speaking,structured
as follows...

I have a registered hostname which is ik5bcu.cjb.net with CNAME
linux.ik5bcu.ampr.org:

[marco@linux marco]$ dig linux.ik5bcu.ampr.org

; <<>> DiG 9.2.2-P1 <<>> linux.ik5bcu.ampr.org
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 61183
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 2

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;linux.ik5bcu.ampr.org.         IN      A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
linux.ik5bcu.ampr.org.  169916  IN      CNAME   ik5bcu.cjb.net.
ik5bcu.cjb.net.         60      IN      A       212.141.182.207

I use a dynamic DNS service offered by www.cjb.net so my IP address changes
every time I issue a new dial-up connection.

What I would like to know is if can I have any chances to configure BIND
so that it works as DNS for my network;I don't pretend to have a public and
performing DNS server,but a functional DNS expecially to serve the
requirements of my SMTP server:QMAIL.

I have installed the latest release:bind-9.2.2-23 along with caching-nameserver.

This last (caching),tested just yesterday,already gave me proof of very good
performer for its speed in comparison to my old /etc/hosts /etc/resolv.conf only
system.

Thanks for reading.

Regards,Marco
