OT: getting named to answer differently based on requester's IP

[Freddie Cash]

You want to set up views and IP-based ACLs.  There's lots of documentation
online about configuring views.  Basically, they work exactly how you want:
  - clients with IPs in 192.168.2.x subnet get 192.168.2.x replies
  - all other clients get public IP replies
