I am not able to understand why this answer is being Received denver2.test1.com. 600 IN A 10.54.80.35 as I have not configured any owner-name for the record type It’s not an “owner”, it’s a RR (Resource Record) ;) In your zone file you have: denver2.test1.com. IN A 10.54.80.150 IN A 10.54.80.35 So BIND interprets the 2nd line as a 2nd value for denver2.test1.com., which makes perfect sense. 2. If there is no owner-name specified in the DNS Records, what owner-name does the record actually pick? See above: it’ll pick the previous line where you have a RR defined. Cheers, -- Nico
