Lisa,
Your forward file should be something like this:
================================================
$TTL 3600
@ IN SOA ns.jellico.com. dnsadmin.jellico.com. (
2003071101 ; serial
3H ; refresh
1H ; retry
1W ; expiry
1D ) ; minimum
; DNS Servers
@ IN NS ns.jellico.com.
@ IN NS ns2.jellico.com.
; Machine Names
localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
mail IN A 208.44.26.225
pop IN A 208.44.26.225
@ IN A 208.44.26.225
; Aliases
www IN CNAME @
ww IN CNAME @
w IN CNAME @
; MX Record
@ IN MX 10 mail.jellico.com.
================================================
Just correct the IP's and add the rest of your hosts, and
correct any names that may be incorrect. Make sure you name
the file the same as bind is looking for in:
/etc/namedb/named.conf
If you have specific questions to any of the file entries you can email me
directly.
