Ubuntu dns server SRV records


I am quite interested in one thing. I am trying to code my dns server that when i connect to one of my subdomains it connects not only to an ip adress but to an ip : port adress.
For this i tried using SRV record, but with lack of success.
Dns server specification:
OS Ubuntu server 10.10 and using bind9

I have configured everything so that my subdomains work on an ip address, but i need some of them to work on ip : port too.
in my brfconcept.lv.db file i used: (what i mentioned below isn't the full content of the file)
Code:
_http._udp  IN  SRV  0  5  27017  testing.brfconcept.lv
testing  IN  A 83.99.211.134

in my rev.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa i used: (what i mentioned below isn't the full content of the file)
Code:
134  IN  PTR testing.brfconcept.lv
What i would want is not just for 1 service to aim at at the 27017 port but all services if its possible, when you enter testing.brfconcept.lv Is that possible and what am i doing wrong?

Any suggestion towards this would help!

The http is a tcp protocol. Other than that I don't see anything wrong. What gives:
Code:
dig srv _http._tcp.brfconcept.lv

You mean something like:
Code:
_http._tcp  IN  SRV  0  5  27017  testing.brfconcept.lv.
_smtp._tcp  IN  SRV  0  5  27017  testing.brfconcept.lv.
_imap._tcp  IN  SRV  0  5  27017  testing.brfconcept.lv.
_ldap._tcp  IN  SRV  0  0  27017  testing.brfconcept.lv.
Sure you can, but I cannot find a reason why you should do that

For example i have an counter strike 1.6 server. Let's say the hostname of the server is brfconcept.lv. When you connect to that hostname it will direct you to ip:port, in this case it would direct you to the ip:27015 port, because it is the default one. What i need is that when i connect to testing.brfconcept.lv, it would connect to ip:27017. Why i asked can i forward all services is because i dont know what service is it and i know its UDP.

Is it possible to create this or somehow to analyze what service the game uses?

It is not going to work.
AFAIK only VoIP systems and in some cases windows AD are using SRV for services discovery and I don't think that a CS client is going to do a SRV lookup to find a CS server.

OK, but is there a way to direct the clients target to the 27017 port for every type of connection?

I guess you can forward all ports from your router to the port want
