-For those wishing to set up a more robust local nameserver, or if you plan on running a public [[tier1|Tier 1]] or [[tier2|Tier 2]] server for OpenNIC, configuring BIND with slave zones is the preferred method. Please read the policies before running a public T2 server. You should also join the appropriate [[mailinglist|MailingLists]] so you'll be notified of changing situations which may affect your operation.+For those wishing to set up a more robust local nameserver, or if you plan on running a public [[tier1|Tier 1]] or [[tier2|Tier 2]] server for OpenNIC, configuring BIND with slave zones is the preferred method.

 Slave zones contain the full record of domain names for each OpenNIC TLD. When a query is made for an OpenNIC domain, you have the exact information needed to proceed directly to that domain, thus eliminating several hops in processing a query. Note that the only difference between a Tier 1 and Tier 2 server is that Tier 1 servers do not process public queries for ICANN domains - they ONLY process OpenNIC TLD requests. Slave zones contain the full record of domain names for each OpenNIC TLD.

 To finish your new configuration, restart BIND. If you have logging enabled, you should see BIND attempting to transfer the various zones to your server. If you look in the directory specified in the options file (or in the directory you specified if full path names were used), you should see the zone files being added. To finish your new configuration, restart BIND.
