Hi, The syntax I am familiar with looks like this: 1. assumption this is for zone mydomain.com 2. assumption upstream soa is correct and points to ns1 as primary nameserver ns1 IN NS ns2 IN NS ns1 IN A 192.168.1.1 ns2 IN A 192.168.1.2 www IN CNAME ns1 # mydomain.com is implicit www IN CNAME ns1.mydomain.com. # also valid, same as above mailer IN CNAME www.hotmail.com. #points mailer.mydomain.com to hotmail Regards, Cecil
