 +===== Hidden primary server =====
 +It is possible to run your primary server on a private IPv4 address, or to simply not have it
 +accessible from the Internet at all. In that case, delegate your domain at your registrar only to
 +the shared secondary servers, i.e. ns3.vpsfree.cz and ns4.vpsfree.cz.
  
 ===== TSIG ===== ===== TSIG =====
 Zone transfers between primary and secondary servers can be further secured using TSIG. First, create a shared key in the menu DNS -> TSIG Keys. Each key is identified by an arbitrary name, chosen algorithm, and secret code. These values must match on all servers. When adding primary servers to a zone, you can set the selected TSIG key. The sample configuration again shows how to set up TSIG on the primary server. Zone transfers between primary and secondary servers can be further secured using TSIG.
