Hello John The below is not working on our BIND version BIND 9.10.0-P2 unless it is working on other version
Domain.com. CNAME x.y.com. www CNAME x.y.com. Errors returned when adding these records: general: dns_master_load: ourweddingaccount.com.db.inter:13: ourweddingaccount.com: CNAME and other data If we proceed with the below work around by replacing the CNAME with A record, It will resolve but our setup requires a CNAME record. Domain.com. A IPaddress www CNAME x.y.com.

CNAME x.y.com. www CNAME x.y.com. it should work. Some people believe that you can't have other records at names below a name with a CNAME, but they are mistaken. On the other hand, this will not work. domain.com. CNAME x.y.com. domain.com. MX 10 server.somewhere To make this work, you need Stephane's hack of copying the A and AAAA records.
