The default class is always IN (Internet) and no even remembers the other non-Internet classes these days. You fact is, you can't have a CNAME for any domain, if that domain also has other records. Why? Becasue a CNAME is essentional a re-write (replace X with Y). A second level domain will always have a SOA record, and at least two NS records. The best way to handle this is with an include file. Tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
