Hello, on my home network I have a dedicated file server wired into my router that is always on. As a little project I would like to set this up as a DNS Server, and have all PCs direct towards this PCs (192.168.1.xxx) for all its DNS resolving. I will still use my ISPs DNS server as a secondary.

What is the simplest way of achieving this? Does WinXP Pro have this capability built-in? I notice in my Admin Tools in Control Panel there is a DNS icon. Will this do? I've found absolutely nothing on the internet about any of this.

I found a program called Simple DNS Plus. Does anyone know if this is any good? Or if there is an open-source solution?

Thanks for any advice.
