Quite correct (sorry for the top post). I'm surprised, but glad to have learned something. The only difference in the cases I do are that they're MS DNS and the zones I normally use that trick for are forwarded.

Try the following test: Pick a name that has both A and MX records, but isn't currently in cache. dig <name> a @server dig <name> any @server I have no idea what MS DNS does, but I'm pretty certain that if you direct this to the BIND server the second query will only return the A record, not the MX record. -- Barry Margolin Arlington, MA _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
