zone A record?
Dan Letkeman
I'm new to bind and I have a question about giving a zone an A record.
I have one server setup as a master and two slave servers. I have
created company.com as a master zone, and I have created
location1.company.com as a master zone. The company.com zone has
entries for our web sites, and other services and the
location1.company.com has entries for some internal servers and other
things. The problem I ran into is that I need to create an entry for
a website on our internal web server to point to
location1.company.com. But I cannot do that because
location1.company.com already exists as a zone. So my question is,
can I give the zone a blank A record?
If not, is there a better way to configure this type of scenario?
Thanks,
Dan.

Of course. There's nothing special about A records. Your zone file
probably starts with something like this, which defines records for the
zone name:
@ IN SOA ...
IN NS ...
IN NS ...
Just add the A record to this set.
