Multiple domain names using the same IP

[Michael Voight]

zones and domains are similar..  a domain with it's own SOA record is a

The setup would be the same as it would be for one address for one zone.
You simply create one address record in each zone. Or, in one zone
create an A record and in the others create CNAMES.
