As a final step, modify the hostname of each machine to match what the DNS server says it is (including the domain). This will be important for services we configure in later labs.
Moving the note about setting the hostname to include the domain higher up.
#Only install the '''bind-utils''' package for your '''vm2''' and '''vm3''' machines.
#You will need to configure your '''vm2''' and '''vm3''' to use vm1's IPADDR as the '''default DNS server''' (DNS1) in your '''ifcfg-eth0''' (or ''ifcfg-en0'') file for your network interface card.<br>You should know how to do that, but if you forgot the procedure, refer to [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/OPS335_Lab_1#Making_Persistent_.28Permanent.29_Network_Setting_Changes Lab 1].
#Modify the hostname of '''each machine''' (host and all three VMs) to match what the DNS server says it is (including the domain). This will be important for services we configure in later labs.
# You should '''NOT''' set your Host Machine to use '''vm1''' as the DNS server. DNS is a critical component of your network setup and if it's not working right - you won't even be able to look for a solution online (or get to this wiki page) on your host. Also your host is configured to be a DHCP client and it gets its DNS server assigned automatically.
Upon completion of this lab you have a DNS server in your network and every virtual machine is using it to resolve internal and external hostnames.
You have now gained experience with some common configuration settings for named, as well as common resource records.
'''Depending on your professor you will either be asked to submit the lab in class, or online. Follow the appropriate set of instructions below.'''
