It should look like what you put above.

To be specific:

domain.com. NS name.server.1.
domain.com. NS name.server.2.
domain.com. MX 10 mail.server.1.
domain.com. A xx.xx.xx.xx
*.domain.com. A xx.xx.xx.xx

That puts every hostname in the domain on the same address, assuming the two addresses used above are the same.
