how to describe subdomains

[Adrian Goins]

inside of your zone file, do the following:

<all of the stuff for domain.com>

$ORIGIN sub.domain.com.
name		IN	A	xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
name2		IN	A	xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

$ORIGIN sub1.domain.com.
name3		IN	A	xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

you'll have name.sub.domain.com and name2.sub.domain.com, as well as
name3.sub1.domain.com
