Bind ip alias

[Jason Staudenmayer]

If that other mach is on the same net and is using your DNS server then the
entry you have is right for that return.
You'll want to setup apache then point ALL domains to the same IP address
from an 'outside' (ISP/HOST) DNS. You should also use CNAME and not so many
A records. It should look like this


hosteddomain.com.		IN	A       realip.address.com.
ftp.hosteddomain.com 	IN    CNAME 	hosteddomain.com.
mail.hosteddomain.com	IN	CNAME		hosteddomain.com.
www.hosteddomain.com	IN    CNAME 	hosteddomain.com.

Hi Jason

I see what you're saying with the apache configuration but I'm sure 
bind isn't setup up right as when I ping www.hosteddomain.com. from 
another machine it returns the ip alias ip

ping www.hosteddomain.com
PING www.hosteddomain.com (10.0.0.10): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.0.0.10: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.259 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.242 ms
64 bytes from 10.0.0.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.259 ms

And so on..

I assume that I should get the external ip if things are setup right.
