| I'm trying to host a simple web page on a dynamically assigned address behind a nat server. I am having dns problems.
How to configure a dns server to meet the needs of internal security and external availability?
would that be secondary server on same box as nat?
internet name is registered | |

No that would be on the Unix or Linux box
seriously..you should look into a dynamic dns solution for your described environment.What NS are currently authoritive for your registered domain? | |

| The ns' currently shown are not pointed anywhere. I tried to have them point to my external nic but they said that there needs to be an ns that can be resolved from the internet already installed at whatever address I point them to.
Add to the fun, the internet name is xxx.ca but is located on an iis server that is a member server in unregistered private yyy.ca domain. I dont want any access to my ad dns, but xxx.ca is on lan nic address. Again, everything is behind basic 2kserver nat on dhcp assigned cable modem.
Everything I have found so far indicates the microsoft solution would require isa server for the nat. | |

| Right to host your DNS your going to need a static IP. So for you will need to have someone else manage NS for your (internet)domain.(loads of options).
Then use port forwarding to connect to 80 on the IIS box. Honestly though,Im not all that familiar with the MS implementation of NAT.
Its suprising this is stumping you of all people. | |

You know what they say, 'learn your dns from soup to nuts'.
I'm just trying to figure out how to get from here to there, or is it from there to here?
I was thinking of trying two nat servers in series, first splitting the 1 address into 2, then serving the network and webserver needs from there... I dont know, its just a diversion really anyways... something to try. I think I need two address', if I divert everything going to port 80 to the web server, that will probably dampen my surfing experience.
I guess at some point I will have to quit trying to cut corners on the expenditure side of the equation, till then being cheap can help stimulate the imaginative juices. You never know, I might just learn something along the way. | |

This may be the perfect opportunity to gain some linux skills. Throw a cheap box on 30-50 bucks...your network with a linux distro ($0)and do the NAT/Firewall/routing from there. You will definately learn something!
The webserver will listen on port 80 and serve up pages..unless your getting a lot of traffic I doubt you will will saturate your bandwidth. |
