hi
I'm running Red Hat 9.0
I tried to create simple master server for FTW.com zone.But when I started the server,Named couldn't locate hosts in that zone.So I opened /var/log/messages and found there was an error reported at startup
Aug 29 04:17:05 root named[9715]: dns_master_load: FTW.com.zone:13: unknown RR type 'Katja'
Aug 29 04:17:05 root named[9715]: zone FTW.com/IN: loading master file FTW.com.zone: unknown class/type
Aug 29 04:17:05 root named[9715]: running

Seems like my Bind server doesn't recognise A record type.I will post my config files even though I don't think it's anything wrong with those

NAMED.CONF FILE:

   options { directory "/var/named" ; };

   zone "." in {type hint; file "named.ca" ; };

   zone "FTW.com" in {
          type master;
          file "FTW.com.zone";
   };
__________________________________________

FTW.COM.ZONE FILE:

    $TTL 3d

    @ IN SOA L.FTW.com. U.L.FTW.com. (
          20000160 ; Serial
          21600 ; Refresh
          1600 ; Retry
          9w ; Expire
          3h ) ; Negative cache TTL

    ;define the nameservers

           IN  NS  L.FTW.com.

    ;Define hosts here it all goes wrong

       Katja  IN     A     192.168.0.3
       L        IN     A     192.168.0.7

thank you
