I have sucessfully setup up a primary/secondary DNS structure. The updates take place and information is passed to the secondary system. I can nslookup all new items added as expected. However I was wondering if the output looks okay to someone who has more experience with this. Some of the placement and inserts into the secondary system seem odd to me. Maybe its just me. The output from the two systems is below: (The formatting is skewedin the forum. This really looks like a normal DNS file on the system)



PRIMARY SYSTEM:

What seems odd to you, everything seems ok?

Great,

The only thing that seemd odd was that it was creating its own format. I just wanted to check if that was normal, and whether I should expect other automated changes to the format.

Thanks,
