There is nothing wrong with that, but have you looked at:
br1.CN85rd.molalla.net:root{120}# pwd
/usr/src/etc/namedb
named.conf:
zone "0.0.127.IN-ADDR.ARPA" {
type master;
file "localhost.rev";
};
and PROTO.localhost.rev:
@ IN SOA @host@. root.@host@. (
@date@ ; Serial
3600 ; Refresh
900 ; Retry
3600000 ; Expire
3600 ) ; Minimum
IN NS @host@.
1 IN PTR localhost.@domain@.
br1.CN85rd.molalla.net:root{125}#
Now do you see what is wrong????
