I have set-up 2 dns servers for public queries and to hold my own publically visible entries (web / email etc).
I have set-up the zone file with the public IP Addresses of the name servers to be authoratative for the zone (not there true internal IP Addresses).
When I try to configure the Primary DNS Server to allow Zone transfers to only the internal address of the secondary server the zone transfers start to fail. I suspect this is because the name servers defined for the zone are both public, thus to resolve this problem I will need to and the internal address of the DNS Server as one of the name servers however, this poses a security threat. Is there a way around this problem other than that mention in this statement.
