Hi. I have taken over some dns servers, and the process of doing upgrade, half way through the process..
I have a question about the zone files , as there is some configuration here that I have not seen before and seems out of place. here is an excerpt of the zone file $TTL 14400 @ IN SOA example.com. postmaster.example.com. ( 2010042142 ; Serial 3600 ; Refresh (1 hours) 1200 ; Retry (20 minutes) 1728000 ; Expire (20 days) 14400 ; Minimum (4 hours) ) IN NS ns1.example.com. IN NS ns2.example.com. ; IN NS ns1.catalyst.net.nz. IN MX 10 mail01.example.com. IN MX 10 mail02.example.com. ; IN MX 20 mail03.example.com. IN A 202.xx.xx.2 ns1 IN A 192.168.xx.xx ns2 IN A 192.168.xx.xx listserv IN A 202.xx.xx.2 IN MX 10 mcvpemr01 IN MX 10 mcvpemr02 cache IN A 202.xx.xx.1 IN MX 10 mcvpemr01 IN MX 10 mcvpemr02 captaincomet IN A 202.xx.xx.1 IN MX 10 mcvpemr01 IN MX 10 mcvpemr02 louie IN A 202.xx.xx.1 IN MX 10 mcvpemr01 IN MX 10 mcvpemr02 mail01 IN A 192.168.xx.xx IN MX 10 mcvpemr01 IN MX 10 mcvpemr02 mail02 IN A 192.168.xx.xx IN MX 10 mcvpemr01 IN MX 10 mcvpemr02 nelson IN A 202.xx.xx.1 IN MX 10 mcvpemr01 IN MX 10 mcvpemr02 My question is why would "IN MX 10 mcvpemr01" and "IN MX 10 mcvpemr02" be repeated trough the zone file surely this is redundant ?
