When we started to use bind many years ago we were told that it
necessary to use a A-record for <<domainname.com>> but for
<<www.domainname.com>> it is possible to use a CNAME.
I.e., a typically zonefile here:
===============================
$TTL 14400
@ IN SOA domainname.com. registry.latitud.net (
2006090501 ; Serial
14400 ; Refresh
900 ; Retry
604800 ; Expire
3600 ) ; Negative Cache TTL
@ IN NS dns.webhosting.se.
@ IN MX 10 mail.webhosting.se..
;
domainname.com. IN A X.X.X.X
www IN CNAME www.webhosting.se.
===============================
I suppose it must be possible to change the A-record to a CNAME like
this:
domainname.com. IN CNAME www.webhosting.se.
but I am not sure.
Someone who knows the rules for this?
