Very helpful. Thank you. I was not expecting a subdomain by that name.
And as you point out it has a cname at the apex ... which I thought was not allowed. Isn't it true that a cname record can't co-exist with any other record in a zone file? So if the soa record in the zone file is for www.careerone.com.au ... how does the cname record get defined and loaded successfully? > Subject: Re: question about how a particular dig works ... > From: niall.orei...@ucd.ie > Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2012 15:22:40 +0100 > CC: bind-users@lists.isc.org > To: sun-g...@live.com > > > On 18 Sep 2012, at 14:45, M.
