Hi. I am trying to setup granitecanyon(1) to provide DNS for my friend's
website which he'll be hosting at his home computer. I have created a zone
file which I think is correct according to the example they give (see
below).

My friend wants it set up so that he can have his computer serve as the web,
ftp, and mail server. I submitted this information a few days ago but the
changes have not worked. The final step at granitecanyon is to "Re-delegate
the in-addr Domain" but the steps given on the page(2) are extremely
confusing and the only link that works on the page is also confusing. Can
someone please let me know if the zone file looks correct and how to
delegate the in-addr domain? or point me to info on how to do it? Thanks!

The zone file:
--------------
;
; Zone file for domain.com (made up name);
;
;define nameservers
domain.com.             IN     NS     ns1.granitecanyon.com.
domain.com.             IN     NS     ns2.granitecanyon.com.

;define RP's
domain.com.             IN     RP     friend.email.com. coffee.domain.com.
coffee.domain.com.   IN    TXT "Friend's Name"

;define localhost
localhost                   IN     A     127.0.0.1

;define zone itself
domain.com.             IN     A     123.34.67.89
www                        IN     CNAME     domain.com.
ftp                            IN     CNAME     domain.com.

;define MX
domain.com.           IN     MX 10 domain.com.

; end
