Oh Thanks - I understand that - I can't comprehend the logic behind composing _same_ $ORIGIN paragraphs over-and-over again - this is an example:
$ORIGIN bar irish A 1.2.3.4 brit A 1.2.3.5 $ORIGIN bar2 irish2 A 1.2.3.42 brit2 A 1.2.3.52 $ORIGIN bar irish3 A 1.2.3.43 brit3 A 1.2.3.53 $ORIGIN bar2 irish22 A 1.2.3.422 brit22 A 1.2.3.522 $ORIGIN bar irish39 A 1.2.3.439 brit39 A 1.2.3.539 $ORIGIN bar2 irish29 A 1.2.3.429 brit29 A 1.2.3.529 ...see - What i meant! It keep splitting on some un-even way --- that "$ORIGIN bar" and "$ORIGIN bar2" keep switching back-and-forth... Is there any way to have ONLY ONE paragraph per $ORIGIN?

When writing the zone file on a slave, BIND uses $ORIGIN so that all records just have a single label. So instead of writing: foo.bar IN A 1.2.3.4 it will write: $ORIGIN bar foo IN A 1.2.3.4 If you have a zone with lots of levels of subdomain, the file will have lots of $ORIGIN statements as a result. -- Barry Margolin, bar...@alum.mit.edu Arlington, MA *** PLEASE don't copy me on replies, I'll read them in the group *** -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
