    any people set up your own DNS?

    I'm setting up my own DNS master and slave servers. I'm using Bind 9 something.

    Anyone have any advice for setting up the slave server?

          No advice for you. But yes, I've set it up a dozen times. :D

                      I have done it a few times - but to be honest with the combo of CPanel WHM and NameCheap you cant go wrong.

                      Click the appropiate button in WHM - then click the appropiate button in NameCheap and you are ready to go.

                      If it involved clicking an extra button I would be totally lost.

                              Other than spamming (email, galleries).... why would one want to have their own name server? What benifits are there to it?

                                      I am sure there are a few hundred more reasons.

                                                  i suspect you could do everything you want to do with a free dns hosting service like everydns.. but if you really want to do this there are good bind howtos on the web..

                                                  you need to allow-transfer for the slave server, and have it get the zones off the master server.. its pretty easy to setup

                                                      i prefer bind 8.x over bind 9.x but ya it only takes a few mins to set it up once you compile, setup some zones and add to the conf and start the nameserver

                                                          ummm.. yeah... several for almost 5 years now.. what's the point? I don't need to run my own name server, the hosting company does it.

                                                              Well I can understand registrars and hosts...

                                                              What benifits are there for SEO?

                                                              What control advantages are there? Right now, I click a few buttons to add a new site to my server(s) and then edit my registrar domain info to point to the host DNS... So what advantages would there be to me running my own nameserver.

                                                              I really would like to know because to date, the only people I see doing this are ones that are either doing hosting on the cheap or gallery cheaters. So my perspective is a little limited..
