Is it possible to configure the DNS servers from my DirectAdmin server to use it as a resolving name server for internet domains.

To make myself more clear:

The current configuration is
- For my own domains i use the DNS configured by DirectAdmin
- For the resolving of other domains, like google.com i use the DNS servers from some public DNS provider. (located in /etc/resolv.conf)

But i want the following configuration
- For my own domains i still want to use the DNS configured by DirectAdmin
- For the resolving of other domains, i also want to use my own DNS servers also on the same machine, if possible.

Is there a howto for? Or anyone who can explain this to me?

Thanks in advance.
 
On RHL and on RHEL it should resolve recurisively (that's what it's called) by default.

So in your /etc/resolv.conf file have only one line:

127.0.0.1

and everything should just work. No rebooting or restarting required.
