I know you said, "Never mind," but you seem to be misunderstanding something here ...

( "@" refers to the current $ORIGIN. When a zone file is initially loaded, $ORIGIN is implicitly set to the name of the zone. But you changed that, it's now the root! So "@" here means ".", and no, a zone file with "@" is not the same as a zone file with an explicit owner name for the SOA. My style recommendation: do not use $ORIGIN lines in zone files. Whilst named does it, you do not have to copy named. Leave out $ORIGIN, use @ to refer to the name of the zone, and unqualified owner names beneath @. $TTL 1d @ IN SOA ns hostmaster ( ... @ IN NS ns @ IN NS ns1 @ IN NS ns2 @ IN MX 0 mail mail IN A 192.0.2.25 ns IN A 192.0.2.53 ns1 IN A 192.0.2.35 ns2 IN A 192.0.2.36 Note that there are only relative names in my example. This could load as any zone name. You might want to use some fully-qualified names on the RHS, such as "root.covisp.net." as the SOA RNAME. -- http://rob0.nodns4.us/ Offlist GMX mail is seen only if "/dev/rob0" is in the Subject: _______________________________________________ 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
