Hi pls guide me on these as I am quite unsure :
The zone file has to be located in /var/named/zone right?
So is zone a directory or a file?
What is the extension of the file?
Can any name be given for the zone file?
In the DNS HOW TO User Guide, there are many samples given.
So if my server ip is 192.168.0.90 and the mail server name is mail.softsolvers.com.my, do I name my file "192.168.0.90"?
And then create the file according to the tutorial for
/var/named/zone/206.6.177?
