This is not possible. It is against RFC, and BIND enforces it, to have CNAME and any other data at the same branch of the DNS tree. In this case you are trying to put a CNAME at the second level domain example.com. However example.com also has an SOA record, several NS records, and possibly MX records.
You will need to make example.com an A record or use www.example.com IN CNAME someother.site.com. -- -Ben Croswell On Sun, Jan 18, 2009 at 12:37 PM, Dhaval Thakar < dhaval.tha...@networthdirect.com> wrote: > > > Hi, > > I am using bind 9.6.0. > > I want to configure cname for corporate web (example.com). > When I mention following my company site opens without sub domain. e.g > example.com I dont need to mention www.example.com. > > @ IN A x.x.x.x > > I have two ISP with radware link proof.
