CNAME setup issue

Hi all,
ok, this may be a simple question, but I've racked my brain over it for
too long and can't figure it out...
I have a DNS server set up to be an authoritative server only. It has
the following main configuration parameters :
options {
directory "/etc/namedb";
recursion no;
interface-interval 30;
allow-transfer { any; };
dump-file "/var/dump/named_dump.db";
statistics-file "/var/log/named.stats";
query-source address * port 33701;
notify no;
};
I have a zone file set up for a domain that looks like this (will use
the example of domain2.com):
$TTL 4h
@ IN SOA ns3.domain1.com. postmaster.domain1.com. (
2007062508 ; Serial
3600 3600 1209600 3600); ;
Refresh,Retry,Expire,Min TTL
IN NS ns3.domain1.com.
IN NS ns4.domain1.com.
;- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
domain2.com. IN CNAME ghs.google.com.
www IN CNAME ghs.google.com.
Problem is, that if I query the server directly, I get the following
answer :
root at ns1# dig @ns3.simplenet.com mediabait.com
; <<>> DiG 9.3.1 <<>> @ns3.domain1.com domain2.com
; (1 server found)
;; global options: printcmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 55721
;; flags: qr rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;domain2.com. IN A
;; Query time: 2 msec
;; SERVER: 209.xxx.xx.x#53(209.xxx.xx.x)
;; WHEN: Mon Jun 25 14:47:33 2007
;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 31
But, when I do a query on another domain that I know has a CNAME as
well, I get the following :
;store.domain3.com. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
store.domain3.com. 14400 IN CNAME www.empirevstore.com.
Does anyone see a problem with this setup ???
Thanks,
Tim.
