No, absolutely not!
Say your file were called "zone.mine.one.and.only". But in your
"named.conf" file, you specify three zones:
zone "screaming.name" IN {
type master;
file "zone.mine.one.and.only";
};
zone "mimi.name" IN {
type master;
file "zone.mine.one.and.only";
};
zone "munch.name" IN {
type master;
file "zone.mine.one.and.only";
};
When the file is called for the first zone, the default zone name ("@")
is "screaming.name". When the file is called for the second zone, the
default zone name ("@") is "mimi.name". And for the third, of course,
it's "munch.name". It depends on the zone for which the file is
called. The zone file name could be anything else. Even "WIN.INI" or
"COMMAND.COM", e.g., as long as you specified it correctly in the
zone{} statement.
