Set-up Master Name Server (elm)
#Setup a DNS server on your '''elm''' virtual machine with noting the following items below:<ol type="a"><li>This machine will provide '''forward''' and '''reverse''' lookups of ALL virtual machines in the '''coniferous.trees.ops''' zone, including resource records for virtual machines that do not currently exist, but will exist when you perform your assignment #2.</li><li> Make certain to include an '''MX record''' for your admin e-mail contact: '''yoursenecaid@coniferous.trees.ops'''</li><li>For any query for information '''outside''' the '''coniferous.trees.ops''' domain, that machine will send the query to the DNS server you created in your lab #1.</li><li>This machine will allow other machines to perform DNS lookups among ALL virtual machines within the '''coniferous.trees.ops''' network (i.e. recursive lookups).</li><li>Only this Master Name Server will be allowed to transfer zone files from this machine.<br><br></li></ol>
#As you will now have a functioning primary DNS server, modify your network configuration file to specify its new IPADDR.
 
 
listed in that table, including records for machines that do not exist as of yet. It is important to understand that DNS records live independently from the machines that they are "pointing" to.
#A default setup for a master DNS server should be sufficient, but make certain that the address of your '''admin contact''' is: '''yoursenecaid@ops335a1.org''', and that slave DNS servers will check for updated records from this master every 30 minutes.
