NS ns2.harrisonburg.k12.va.us. A 0.0.0.0 * IN A 0.0.0.0Before the all-numeric fields, your SOA record needs both an MNAME field and an RNAME field. MNAME (which you have) should be the name of the primary master; but if you fully-qualify the name you should dot-terminate it, to avoid the zone origin ("00.devoid.us") from being appended. RNAME is a standard SMTP contact email address for the zone, e.g. [email protected], with the @ in the email address replaced with a dot. As with MNAME, make sure to dot-terminate RNAME too if the domain part of the email address is fully-qualified. Your SOA should have total of 7 fields, you're only showing 6; RNAME is missing. A syntactically-better SOA might look like @ IN SOA ns.hhs.harrisonburg.k12.va.us. admin.harrisonbug.k12.va.us. ( 2004061000 28800 7200 864000 86400 ) Beyond that, I can't really tell because of the way email gets reformatted, but if you have any whitespace before "@" or "*", that's going to be a problem; the opening parenthesis should also be on the first SOA line. Last and least, the "min ttl" comment is misleading. The last field of the SOA record is now used as the "negative caching TTL", not "minimum" in any sense of the word. The comment should probably reflect that. Note that you can use the named-checkzone utility -- included in the BIND distribution -- to check a zone file for syntax errors, without actually trying to get named to load the file. - Kevin _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
Thanks, its been a while since I did a zone file. I new there was a way to check the file for errors, but couldnt remember it. I appreciate all the help.
take care, ddh -- Dwayne Hottinger Network Administrator Harrisonburg City Public Schools "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler." -- Albert Einstein "The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who, in times of moral crisis, preserved their neutrality." -- Dante _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
