[techtalk] More DNS Questions

[Kath]

Talked to another person at OPN who said the As should be unique IPs and CNAMEs should be thingies that resolve to the same IP.

So, I fixed that.  This is how my zone file for kathweb.net looks now:

@      SOA     kathweb.net. root.kathweb.net. (       24.190.202.53

                        200101241       ; serial, todays date + todays serial #
                        8H              ; refresh, seconds
                        2H              ; retry, seconds
                        1W              ; expire, seconds
                        1D )            ; minimum, seconds
                NS      kathweb.net.
                NS      ns2.kathweb.net
                MX      10 kathweb.net.  ; Primary Mail Exchanger
                TXT     "Kathweb"

localhost       A       127.0.0.1


kathweb.net.    CNAME   24.190.202.53
ns1             CNAME   24.190.202.53
ns2             A       207.127.75.180
www             CNAME   24.190.202.53
irc             CNAME   24.190.202.53

mail            CNAME   24.190.202.53

  Ok, someone on OPN answered that for me.

  Next question!

  @      SOA     kathweb.net. root.kathweb.net. (       24.190.202.53

                          2000012101       ; serial, todays date + todays serial #
                          8H              ; refresh, seconds
                          2H              ; retry, seconds
                          1W              ; expire, seconds
                          1D )            ; minimum, seconds
                  NS      kathweb.net.
                  NS      ns3.srv.hcvlny.cv.net
                  MX      10 kathweb.net.  ; Primary Mail Exchanger
                  TXT     "Kathweb"

  localhost       A       127.0.0.1


  kathweb.net.    A       24.190.202.53
  ns1              A       24.190.202.53
  ns2             A       207.127.75.180
  www             A       24.190.202.53
  irc             A       24.190.202.53

  mail            A       24.190.202.53

  Does that look right?

  One thing I am confused about is NS:
                  NS      kathweb.net.
                  NS      ns3.srv.hcvlny.cv.net

  Should those be MY dns servers (ns1.kathweb.net and ns2.kathweb.net)?  Someone elses?  My ISP's?

    Can ns1.kathweb.net be on the same IP as kathweb.net ?
