Did you remember to update the serial number of the config file? For
the serial number, I like to use the date in format yyyymmddV. That
way, you know when you changed the file, and the V entry lets you
make more then one change for that day. Also, when you change the
config file, you have to let the daemon know you did it.
/etc/rc.d/init.d/named reload
Now, for the www.adventus.cxm entry, what you need is to add a line to
/var/maned/db.adventus, add a line:
www IN CNAME server.adventus.cxm.
CNAME basicaly says that the entry is an alias...
