I just made it work! Can you believe? =) If you just put localhost IN A 127.0.0.1 * IN CNAME abc.def.com IN CNAME abc.def.com then its working fine. But if I change the order then it just doesnt work again. I will point all the host names related to this domain to the same IP so this works very very fine for me. Do you see any potential problems? Thanks Evren PS. I think buying a book is fine but I dont have time to order it now. I personally like O'Reilly's books very much and we have a nice little collection of them already. =) On Fri, 28 Jul 2000, Doug Barton wrote: > Evren Yurtesen wrote: > > > > I want to use CNAME for pointing a top level domain to a machine for > > example I want to point xyz.com to abc.def.com machine > > I have > > > > $origin xyz.com. > > IN CNAME abc.def.com. > > > > in my conf files but it just doesnt work.
