All about CNAME record

[mgourite at my-deja.com]

  Hello,

  I would like to have informations about the CNAME record :

  1) Why we can't associate an alias at NS, SOA, CNAME, MX records ?
It's because, it's recommended by the RFC or it's a piece of advice to
simplify DNS administrator's life.

  2) What are the problems generated by this use of CNAME ? I heard
about problems with MTA (sendmail), old BIND versions, ...

  Thank you for your responds.
