Okay, so lists.officemedic.net and officemedic.net are two different
zones?

Okay, that's what I was missing.

Oooohh! :-)

BTW, I'm buying a book on this. Do you recommend "DNS and Bind" or the
"Concise Guide to DNS and BIND?" Should I buy the 4th edition (2001) or
can I get by with the 3rd edition (1998)?

Scary sidenote: my partner in Arizona (I'm in California) called his
cable provider and told him he wanted a classless subnet reverse zone set
up at ponyexpress.net. Threw the guy for a loop because 1) he didn't no
what my partner was talking about and 2) he couldn't figure out how we
knew about ponyexpress.net.
