A CNAME must be the only record on its owner name (other than DNSsec signatures for this CNAME). This implies that you cannot have a CNAME at the apex of a zone. Specifically for Google Apps, put ghs CNAMEs only on subdomains like calendar.foobar.com, mail.foobar.com etc. _______________________________________________ Pdns-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.powerdns.com/mailman/listinfo/pdns-dev
