If this is the named I get on 3dillusion.com, it's still not set up right: % dig @3dillusion.com 3dillusion.com any ; <<>> DiG 8.1 <<>> @3dillusion.com 3dillusion.com any ; (1 server found) ;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch ;; got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 10 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 4, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUERY SECTION: ;; 3dillusion.com, type = ANY, class = IN ;; ANSWER SECTION: 3dillusion.com. 1W IN MX 100 3dillusion.3dillusion.com. 3dillusion.com. 1W IN MX 100 mail.3dillusion.com. 3dillusion.com. 1W IN A 198.109.162.43 3dillusion.com. 1W IN SOA ns.3dillusion.com.3dillusion.com. hostmaster.3dillusion.com.3dillusion.com.

I also don't believe mail.3dillusion.com should be the LHS of a CNAME, when it's the RHS of an MX. Is your named authoritative for the 3dillusion.com domain? It seems to me I should have recieved an authority record with the above answer. I had a few hassles getting a private BIND answering authoritatively, and getting errors in syslog each time it started. It also seems a little confused about the PTR record: % dig @3dillusion.com -x 198.109.162.43 ; <<>> DiG 8.1 <<>> @3dillusion.com -x ; (1 server found) ;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch ;; got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 10 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 2 ;; QUERY SECTION: ;; 43.162.109.198.in-addr.arpa, type = ANY, class = IN ;; ANSWER SECTION: 43.162.109.198.in-addr.arpa. 5h14m52s IN PTR imagine.tcimet.net. 43.162.109.198.in-addr.arpa. 5h14m52s IN PTR 3dillusion.com. ;; AUTHORITY SECTION: 162.109.198.in-addr.arpa. 1d21h34m46s IN NS mets.tcimet.net. 162.109.198.in-addr.arpa. 1d21h34m46s IN NS serv1.cl.msu.edu. ;; ADDITIONAL SECTION: mets.tcimet.net. 15h41m12s IN A 198.109.160.2 serv1.cl.msu.edu. 1d13h46m55s IN A 35.8.2.41 ;; Total query time: 730 msec ;; FROM: psyche to SERVER: 3dillusion.com 198.109.162.43 ;; WHEN: Fri Nov 14 19:23:30 1997 ;; MSG SIZE sent: 45 rcvd: 210 -- Carey Evans <*> http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/c.evans/ gc Neniu anticipas la hispanan Inkvizicion. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
