I recently setup a webserver/nameserver and i have apache working great as well as email. I do have a problem with bind however. I have looked everywhere, no luck. I am getting the following error in my logs:

Apr 26 08:38:54 box named[10115]: dns_rdata_fromtext: /var/named/jayde/jaydesdomain.com:12: near 'box.linuxbox.com.': unexpected token
Apr 26 08:38:54 box named[10115]: zone jaydesdomain.com/IN: loading master file /var/named/jayde/jaydesdomain.com: unexpected token


My named.conf entry is below:

zone "jaydesdomain.com" {
type master;
file "/var/named/jayde/jaydesdomain.com";
};

My zone file is below. It is bare, and works with the A and NS records, as soon as I add an MX record or a CNAME it dies:


$TTL 1d
@ IN SOA ns1.linuxbox.net. hostmaster.box.linuxbox.net. (
2002250520 ; Serial
28800 ; Refresh
14400 ; Retry
3600000 ; Expire
86400 ) ; Minimum

IN A 66.107.116.42
IN NS ns1.linuxbox.net.
IN NS ns2.linuxbox.net.
IN MX jaydesdomain.com.

Any help would greatly be appreciated!

Ok, you are right, duh missed that one completly, however now i am getting a different error

Apr 26 10:23:24 box named[2566]: dns_master_load: /var/named/jayde/jaydesdomain.com:2: unexpected end of line
Apr 26 10:23:24 box named[2566]: dns_master_load: /var/named/jayde/jaydesdomain.com:1: unexpected end of input
Apr 26 10:23:24 box named[2566]: zone jaydesdomain.com/IN: loading master file /var/named/jayde/jaydesdomain.com: unexpected end of input

OK thank you for your help in my obvious mistake I knew that one shouldn't have missed it.. I deleted the top line, and it works great now

Thanks again
