[Pdns-users] Split horizon possible with powerdns

Hi,

Another appraoch would be to run two instances of pdns. Every instance would run on a specific ip which corresponds
to the subnet that you want to use. For internal/external scenario's this will probably work.
The small downside of this is that you have to maintain two zones and two powerdns databases.

Regards,
	Ruben
