Slave Dns / DNS forwarder / Proxy?

DXDDXD Member
in Help

is there any plug and play like dns forwarder. Like i have a master dns server which contains all the master records. Is it possible for a slave dns to just forward request to the master for it to actually resolve.?

    Yes.
    But why?
    An active-active situation would make more sense imho.

  • Shot2Shot2 Member

    There are a handful of legitimate use cases.
    BTW, even Nginx may be used as DNS forwarder, doing TCP and UDP proxying/balancing...

    I wouldn't call it a slave. If you want to have a proper secondary server, you will need to set up a proper DNS server as slave.

    If you actually want to proxy/forward requests, I would suggest dnsdist (made by the people behind PowerDNS).

    Thanks for this but i am unable to dig the public ip. I set 0.0.0.0 as the local ip. But the public ip doesn't respond to queries at all. any heads up ?

    @DXD just don't. There is nothing worst than misconfigured DNS server

    dnsmasq does a dandy job, but unbound work work as well.
