Your statement is correct. You could configure your named.conf (BIND v8.x) or
named.boot (BIND v4.x) file with a forwarder statement in the option. For
example in named.conf,
option {
forwarders {
10.10.10.1;
10.10.10.2;
};
After you modify this file, you need to reload your primary DNS to take effect.
We can discuss this offline if you wish.

Subject: Re: DNS
I've been told that the second nameserver will be checked only if the 1st
isn't reachable; however, if the 1st one is reachable but cannot resolve the
name, the system doesn't check on the second one. I'm talking about AIX
4.2.1
Can anyone confirm please ?
Thanks
Al
