Question : DNS entry not returning CNAME record.
|
|
I have a domain I would like to use for my .Mac account. I manage my own DNS running BIND 9.2.4. I have created the record below. Also below is a DIG and NSlookup. I can dig the domain, but nslookup says, "can't find". Can someone please show me what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
thomdunaway.com. IN SOA ns1.wheretostay.com. hostmaster.wheretostay.com. ( 1177707528 1800 900 846000 1800 ) thomdunaway.com. IN NS ns1.wheretostay.com. thomdunaway.com. IN MX 10 mail.wheretostay.com. thomdunaway.com. IN NS ns2.mydyndns.org. thomdunaway.com. IN NS ns3.mydyndns.org. thomdunaway.com. IN NS ns4.mydyndns.org. thomdunaway.com.

Here is a modified snapshot of what a DNS record looks like on our server:
$TTL 86400 @ IN SOA n1.domain.com. postmaster.domain.com. ( 2007110801 ;Serial 10800 ; Refresh every hour 3600 ; Retry every hour 604800 ; Expire after a week 86400 ) ; Minimum ttl of 1 day IN NS n1.domain.com. IN NS n2.domain.com. IN NS n3.domain.com. IN A 123.456.789.012
;mysite.com hosts www CNAME mysite.com.
