One IP Multiple Domains

[Jeff Lightner]

We use multiple domains here but a single arpa.xx.xx.xx zone file
(in.addr entry in named.conf) for each IP range of reverse lookups.

Since the arpa file contains FQDNs it seems you could put in whatever
name you want as the FQDN assuming you're not duplicating the IP for
multiple zones.   We actually do have some entries that forward lookup
different zone files as you intend with different domains but the
reverse lookups all go to our primary domain so all have a single FQDN
in the arpa file.

Subject: One IP Multiple Domains

I have a name server setup successfully serving my apache website and
sendmail email for several months now. I want to add additional domains
using the same name server and the same IP. I understand (i think) that
I
only need to add additional zone files as well as add entries to the
named.conf. I am probably needlessly confusing myself when I ponder the
reverse zone file for the new zone, or do I add something to the
existing
one? Here I go again, frozen in my thoughts. Please help!!!
