Using Bind to create DNS proxy
Posted: Thu Feb 21, 2013 7:56 am
Hi, linux newbie here - I'm looking to use bind to create "if-else" type logic in /etc/named.conf.
The reason why I want to do this is that in order to get my Roku working on my network, I'm using unblock-us.com (I'm in Australia) which involves changing the DNS servers to their specific ones. This breaks all the *.home.com references, which is annoying and takes away heaps of Amahi functionality.
I'd like to be able to use the Amahi DNS for everything internal (192.168.1.* and everything at *.home.com) and everything else use the unblock-us.com DNS servers.
Is this possible? Can someone point me in the right direction to learn how to do this?
I've found http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Centralised_Local_DNS but that isn't exactly what I'm looking to do.
Any help is appreciated.
