About DNS (BIND) with Database

MyDNS doesn't do recursive lookups so yes, you will need a seperate name
server for that. My work has been using MyDNS for over a year now and
we're hosting over 50k domains with it with no problems, we use a
replicated MySQL setup to run more than one name server with a local db
for speed.

Hope that helps somewhat.
