Ask away. I happen to have the O'Reilly book here. The book says your zone file is broke (bet you knew that). You've given a name a CNAME record (made an alias), and also other records which is illegal since the NS will follow the CNAME record to the cannonical name. Other records for the alias aren't accessible. Here's the example: terminator2 IN CNAME t2 terminator2 IN MX 10 t2 t2 IN A 192.249.249.10 t2 IN MX 10 t2 So if you ask for the MX for terminator2, the NS will follow the CNAME record and give you the MX for t2. There's no way to get to the terminator2 MX, so it complains. Probably you can just remove any other records for entries that have a CNAME.
