I installed the following as the default-empty zone file for FreeBSD back in 2007, and it has withstood numerous versions of BIND in the process: $TTL 3h @ SOA @ nobody.localhost. 42 1d 12h 1w 3h ; Serial, Refresh, Retry, Expire, Neg. cache TTL @ NS @ ; Silence a BIND warning @ A 127.0.0.1 You might find the various files at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/namedb/ interesting as well. hth, Doug -- You can observe a lot just by watching. -- Yogi Berra Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
