Hi All: I have a domain I'm authoritative for, in Bind 9.5.0-p1. I'm trying to bring up a mailserver in the domain that uses domain-keys, and the server's tech support staff sent me a domain key to add as a text record for the domain.
This is the first domain I ever was required to set up domain-keys for. The domain key has a syntax like: server._domainkey.domain.com. IN TXT "k=rsa; p=[very long string]" When I try to reload the zone, I get a log error: 17-Oct-2008 09:40:30.816 general: error: db.domain.com:18: server._domainkey.domain.com: bad owner name (check-names) 17-Oct-2008 09:40:30.816 general: error: zone domain.com/IN/external: loading from master file db.domain.com failed: bad owner name (check-names) The server's support people are telling me "the current release of BIND doesn't seem to like underscores and you need to disable name-checking in BIND" Is that correct? If so, can I disable name-checking for a particular domain?
