[...snatched from the archives]
Here is an example of a zone db file that would work for any number of
zones being mastered by the same name server where all of the zone data
is the same:
@ IN SOA ns1.domain.com. admin.domain.com. (
2003020200
28800
14400
604800
86400)
@ IN NS ns1.domain.com.
@ IN NS ns2.domain.com.
@ IN MX mail.domain.com.
@ IN MX mail2.domain.com.
@ IN A 10.200.5.43
ns1 IN A 192.168.1.1
ns2 IN A 192.168.1.2
mail IN A 192.168.1.3
mail2 IN A 192.168.1.4
www IN CNAME @
[added later...
Remember, that on the Slave server, the name of the zone db backup file
*must* be unique. Use a script for this purpose if you have many to
create.
...done addition]
Notice that "@" is a substitute for the ORIGIN, which unless otherwise
explicitly changed, is the name of the zone as specified in the "zone"
statement of named.conf. Therefore, the above zone db file could be
used for any number of domains that contain the same information. Some
companies need to have hundreds of domains contain the same information
due to the fact that they have registered every possible mis-spelling of
their domain name. Although, I don't know why I am telling you this, as
you already have a reason to use a zone db like the one above...
Thanks,
Dave...
