DNS question: msg#00193

user-groups.linux.ilug.general

Subject: DNS question


I got myself a broadband connection and have set up a smoothwall 2.0 firewall, with a Green Red and Orange(DMZ). Say I have a domain (example.com) can I set the DNS servers for example.com to my smoothwall Red zone ip and have smoothwall redirect it to a server in my DMZ zone?
if so is it just a matter of modifying the hosts file on the smooth wall to include to DMZ ip ..

i.e.
192.168.1.1 example.com


and do I just the allow port forwarding on the smoothwall to the above ip for the services I want to use ??


I think I am over simplifying how this is done. I have goggled and most of the returns are for setting up dynamic dns.

Any pointers to docs or experiences would be grately received.

Jason.
