[cobalt-users] Fw: A single SOA for all unlisted Zones.... how?

["Cobalt List" <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

k, I this is esscentially all I'm after now...

if a domain is not found in named.conf it uses this other zone file; if bind 
were as easy it would be:

zone "www.blah.com" { .....Zone file here... }
else { .... Zone file here...}

but I don't think it is that easy :\ any ideas how this type of thing can be 
done (I need it done like this for automation purposes)...

Thanks,
  James Austin

Subject: A single SOA for all unlisted Zones....  how?

I have been trying to create a solution such that a global SOA is used for 
unresolved domains which have the NS listed as that of my server; I have an 
idea on what it should be like but this obviously doesn't work>>

In /etc/named.conf :
======================================================
# This would catch all unresolved and set them to be processed by
# pri.unresolved zone file
zone "*" { type master; file "pri.unresolved"; };
======================================================

In /etc/named/pri.unresolved:
======================================================
# Set the NS for all unresolved as ns1.auzit.net

$TTL 86400
* IN SOA ns1.auzit.net. viper.staff.cairnscity.com. (
        2003012610
        10800
        3600
        604800
        86400
        )

# Wildcard NS
* IN      NS      ns1.auzit.net.
* IN      NS      ns2.auzit.net.

# Now A Names which define the domains.

domain1.com.    in      a       10.0.0.4
www.domain1.com.        in      a       10.0.0.4
domain2.com.    in      a       10.0.0.99
www.domain2.com.        in      a       10.0.0.99
======================================================

Hopefully you can see what I'm trying to achieve, however I have no idea how 
to make it work (what you've seen is me trying to apply my limited knowledge 
to areas where it doesn't fit :P ).

Thanks in Advance,
James Austin
