Need help setting up SPF in DNS


Now that AOL is blocking all e-mail from servers that do not have SPF records in the DNS entry. Looks like I'll have to update my site.

Can someone send me an example of a working Zone with the SPF setup.? What file do I edit.. where it's located .. etc.. etc.. and if I have to restart the DNS (Bind) to get it to work.

Thanks,
Sean

Go here

You edit your zone files, and yes, you will have to -HUP named for it to see it. Make sure to update your serial number so that the slaves pick it up too.

I did find this... but I'm still a little slow. Do you have an actual zone file that is working that I can take a look at.? Also you said that I had to change the servial.. what do you mean.?? Forgive the ignorance about BIND... any further details would be a great help.

Thanks,
Sean

Sounds like you need to read this first.

Yes, I have a ton of zone files with SPF records in them, but if I just give you the answer, it won't be of any value
