See the DNAME record. It's like a CNAME, but applies to the whole domain. But you need to put the DNAME in the zone where the domain is delegated; so in your case, you'd have to get the DNAME into the .COM zone. Another way to do it is to use the same zone file for both zones on the master server. Make sure that you use unqualified names everywhere in the zone file that you're not referencing outside the zone. -- Barry Margolin Arlington, MA _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
