Search Again: Minor help request From: Robert J. Woodhead (AnimEigo) Date: Tuesday, July 7, 1998 Time: 5:20:00 pm Having switched over to qDNS from macDNS (quite happily I must admit) I am now faced with the prospect of making sure that my setup is up to snuff. Not being a DNS expert, I would appreciate any pointers. 1) Originally my animeigo.com DNS was set up by my ISP, and once or twice a day he zone transfers from me. However, I think he's listed as the primary, and I think I ought to be, with him as secondary. How does one change that? I tried using the menandmice DNS tool but it tried to do zone transfers from my ISP and then gave up. 2) Ditto on my other domains (selfpromotion.com, etc) that I run out of the office (some aliased to my animeigo.com server, some on their own machines) 3) I *think* I've got everything set right, but I'm not sure. Each one of my domains has: an NS pointing to my nameserver a MX pointing to animeigo.com (my mailserver) A's and CNAMEs referring to various machines and aliases. Any help would be appreciated. One thing that seemed to be lacking in the qDNS doco was a good example of a "well-put-together" domain. best R ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Woodhead's Law: "The further you are from your server, the more likely it is to crash."
