Hi,
I tried to migrate from BIND 8 to BIND 9, but BIND 9 doesn't want to accept
zone file BIND 8 was using, reporting errors such as: "CNAME and other data"
and "multiple RRs of singleton type".

Does anybody know how to "force" BIND 9 not to strictly comply with rules
regarding "inconsistencies" in zone files?

Thanks

Is there an echo in here? The solution is to remove the CNAME's and do it
correctly.
