We have been running Sun's Solaris 9 BIND (reported as version 8.3.3) for some 
years and are retiring the old hardware.  However, we came across an apparent 
syntax issue in moving the RHEL's BIND.

Here's a piece of the old data file:

oldmail            IN      A       192.168.9.2
                IN      MX      100     mail

Note the empty first field of the second line.  Solaris BIND has never 
complained about this. "mail" is published as a CNAME in the outside world, 
since it is our main mail server.

However, RHEL's BIND barfs on this missing data field.  And, the MX record gets 
lost and not sent upstream if we turn the Solaris BIND off.

What's wrong here? thanks.
