How to setup a default host resolved IP address

[John Narron]

Depending on how you set up your zone I figure.
I thru this at the end of my zone when I tested it myself to be
sure (so this doesn't become an open-mouth/insert-foot thing):

$ORIGIN cdsinet.net.
*	IN	A	38.195.110.10

Now all "unknowns" are sent to our mail server, for the times
when people don't know how to type and go to wwww.cdsinet.net
instead ;)

How cleaver - us geeks have to amuse ourselves some how, no? :)
