Search Again: Wildcard and CNAME mixups? From: Noah Price Date: Monday, April 17, 2000 Time: 11:15:07 pm This is a portion of the DNS from my domain. Periodically, "www.theprices.net" (which should be sent to 209.237.0.209) seems to get sent to the "*.theprices.net" A record, 209.133.76.41. If I just use "theprices.net" it goes properly to 209.237.0.209. theprices.net. 7200 A 209.237.0.209 *.theprices.net. 7200 A 209.133.76.41 files.theprices.net. 7200 A 209.237.0.209 www2.theprices.net. 7200 A 209.133.76.41 www.theprices.net. 7200 CNAME theprices.net. Is there something about the order or use of "*" or CNAME records that's causing this? I remember a bug regarding use of * in a CNAME record, but didn't think it applied to A records. My primary DNS is QDNS, but my ISP's secondary is some version of BIND (and gives the records in a somewhat different order). I know it looks a bit odd -- I'm getting ready to shift from one machine to another as my web server, but it all looks like it should work...
