<font size="2">Actua<font size="2">ll<font size="2">y Chris -
I've seen it work both ways, even inside a single zone
file. I've done my DNS tab<font size="2">les by hand with
VI for years, so I'm comfortable with that. But others
use tools like Webmin to make changes/additions. Webmin
has a <font size="2">bad habit of putting the entire <font
size="2">HOSTNAME.<font size="2">FQDN in the zone
file. (<font size="2">That's also how </font>I
can tell what's been<font size="2"> changed by
someone else!). <br>
<br>
<font size="2">Bind never seems to min<font
size="2">d. It works <font size="2">for
those host<font size="2">names both before
I take out the extra FQDN characters,
and after. So t<font size="2">hat
shouldn't be causing his problem.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<font size="2">BUT... What is a
"AAAA" record? The "A" record<font
size="2">, I know. But a
"AAAA"????
