My DNS works! But, what is the simplest way to add something to it?
- by Alex
This is my current DNS example.com.db zone file. I followed a tutorial. It works, because when I point to this DNS from another server via resolve.conf, it will actually forward me to the right IP when I do "ping example.com".
;
; BIND data file for example.com
;
$TTL 604800
@ IN SOA example.com. info.example.com. (
2007011501 ; Serial
7200 ; Refresh
120 ; Retry
2419200 ; Expire
604800) ; Default TTL
;
@ IN NS ns1.example.com.
@ IN NS ns2.example.com.
example.com. IN MX 10 mail.example.com.
example.com. IN A 192.168.254.1
www IN CNAME example.com.
mail IN A 192.168.254.1
ftp IN CNAME example.com.
example.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 ip4:192.168.254.1 a mx ~all"
mail IN TXT "v=spf1 a -all"
Right now,
ping example.com....goes to 192.168.254.1. That's great!!! it works!
My question is--how can I add something do this file so that when my other servers:
ping dbserver1....goes to 44.245.66.222
ping cacheserver1 ....goes to 38.221.44.555
I want to use it like a universal hosts file for my machines.
