Hi, I currently have Samba 4.12.6 setup and working with Bind9DLZ as my DNS service. I want to setup Bind only servers without Samba to handle all the DNS traffic for Windows. How do I go about creating slaves servers to handle all the production traffic and still update Samba of DNS/PTR records from Windows devices? Is this possible? Eben Victor

You may be able to get what you are proposing to work, but it would probably take a lot of work, involve a lot of tricks and be totally unsupported by Samba. Rowland
Yes, you can do this. I have in named.conf.local ( on my proxy server ) // forwarded zones. include "/etc/bind/named.conf.forwarders"; # content.. Of that file : /etc/bind/named.conf.forwarders // primary DNS domain. zone "primary.dnsdomain.tld" IN { type forward; forward first; forwarders { 192.168.0.1; 192.168.0.2; }; }; // primary DNS domain reverse zone. zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type forward; forward first; forwarders { 192.168.0.1; 192.168.0.2; }; }; Add more zones as you wish.. So now you can point you pc's to these DNS server. Windows clients, if will/can update there own dns records. This is how i run it. These proxy DNS servers are setup as caching + forwarding servers.
