Thom,

  I'm not a BIND expert, but I think that the problem is this
line:

$ORIGIN customnetworks.ca

It should be:

$ORIGIN customnetworks.ca.

Notice the "." at the end. I believe the "not at the top of domain"
means it doesn't go to the root (i.e., ".") and not the physical
location in the file. Also, pay close attention to that error message:

customnetworks.ca.zone:19: customnetworks.ca.customnetworks.ca: not at
                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Notice that the domain name is reported wrong, which in my experience is
the result of missing a trailing "."...

Hope that helps,

Kevin

Subject: One last bind problem


I've searched google all morning to try and fix this error, but I
can't seem to get it right.

When named starts, I get an error that my main domain
(customnetworks.ca) is not at the top of the zone file. I've managed
to get the other hosting domains I run to load okay, but not my main
one.

Here is the contents of my zone file as well as a snippet from my log
file.

Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named[328]: dns_master_load:
customnetworks.ca.zone:19: customnetworks.ca.customnetworks.ca: not at
top of zone
Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named: named startup succeeded

Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named[328]: zone gnoc.ca/IN: loaded serial 1
Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named[328]: zone paine.ca/IN: loaded serial 1
Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named[328]: zone darksaber.com/IN: loaded serial 1
Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named[328]: zone localdomain/IN: loaded serial 47
Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named[328]: zone localhost/IN: loaded serial 47
Jun  7 10:50:26 ns1 named[328]: running


Here is my customnetworks.ca zone file.

$ORIGIN customnetworks.ca
$TTL 84600
@       IN      SOA     ns1.customnetworks.ca.  thom.customnetworks.ca
(
                               13 ; serial
                               28800 ; refresh
                               14400 ; retry
                               604800 ; expire
                               86400 ; ttl
                               )



       IN      NS      ns1.customnetworks.ca.
       IN      NS      ns2.multiboard.com.

       IN      MX      10      ns1.customnetworks.ca.
       IN      MX      20      ns2.multiboard.com.

       IN      A       204.101.242.25

ns1     IN      A       204.101.242.25

ftp     IN      CNAME   ns1
mail    IN      CNAME   ns1
www     IN      CNAME   ns1


Can anyone see any errors in this that is preventing it from working
properly?

Thanks.
