(plus see my notes below) ----------- Start Template -------------- $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA ns1.partechgenerators.com. netadmin.partech.us. ( 7 ; serial 28800 ; refresh 7200 ; retry 604800 ; expire 86400 ; ttk ) @ IN NS ns1.partechgenerators.com. @ IN NS ns2.partechgenerators.com. @ IN MX 10 mail.partechind.com. @ IN MX 10 mail.partech.us. @ IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 ns1 IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 ns2 IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 www IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 ---------- End Template ------------ Why are these records are included in your zone? The TLD entry for this zone does not point to your name servers... partechind.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs its own zone loaded. dmtcorporation.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs to be loaded in the dmtcorporation zone above. www.dmtcorporation.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs its own zone loaded. gesanusa.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs to be loaded in the gesanusa zone above. www.gesanusa.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs its own zone loaded. ottomotores.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs to be loaded in the ottomotores zone above. www.ottomotores.com. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs its own zone loaded. partech.us. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 This entry needs to be loaded in the partech zone above. www.partech.us. IN A xxx.xxx.xxx.181 In other words... in your named.conf file zone "partechgenerators.com" { type master ; file "partechgenerators.zone" ; }; zone "ottomotores.com" { type master ; file "ottomotores.zone" ; }; etc... Plus consider adding "recursion no" to your named.conf file. Steve Cowles -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
