And give them the proper hostnames of the two servers as well.

Two other things you should fo:
1.    Always tell ESAT you're doing this - after the fact.
2.    Don't try and run a DNS server unless you know exactly what you're
doing.   I'm not saying this applies to you, but there are too many people
out there who don't.   Most of whom seem to be working for "small ISPs".
