Using wildcards with named ?!?!?!

[SilverLeif]

yes it is  this is a cool trick

in my zone file  i added
www	IN	A	1.2.3.4
ftp	IN	A	2.3.4.5
*	IN	A	4.3.2.1


everything .domain  will point to the *
if it is defined already then it will resolve to the ip defined

but everything will come up cursewords.domain
I havent had it slow down my systems at all.
