Hiya, I'm getting some interesting results from dnsreport's tools for checking my domain's SOA and MX related records... (mind you, everything is working well) I'm wondering how, given my scenario, I should set-up the MX record for my domain (and all the domains I host) I only have one physical server at the moment which does everyhing: web, email, etc. For sub-domains, to same some time, I have a *.domain.com which forwards all requests for anything anything.domain.com to the correct IP (where Apache then handles it using VirutalHosts.) But, for the MX record, I'd like to use mail.domain.com, so I can eventually set-up and migrate all users to a specific mail server, whithout having to update all the SOA records. For example, when I set-up a mail server, I'd like to change one record in domain.com's SOA which says mail.domain.com in A 123.456.78.1 and otherwise, *.domain.com in A 123.456.78.2. Does this make sense and is their a better, RFC compliant way of doing this? p. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
