- Hi,
- I am putting our company online for the first time with DNS and I'm
- having trouble with the MX records. As directed by PSI, I have the following
- named.hosts file:
-
- @ IN SOA progress.com. tucker.progress.com (
- 111.111 ;Serial
- 10800 ;Refresh
- 3600 ;Retry
- 432000 ;Expire
- 86400 ) ;Minimum
- IN NS progress.com.
-
- IN MX 10 pscgate.progress.com.
- IN MX 20 ns3.psi.net.
-
- pscgate IN A 192.77.186.1
- introute IN A 192.77.186.99
- progress IN A 192.9.210.4
- tahiti IN A 192.9.223.18
- localhost IN A 127.0.0.1
-
- Mail coming in to progress.com is fine, but I have tried a million combos
- to add an MX for *.progress.com only to have it fail for all mail. Any
- hints as to where the MX should go or if this whole file is incorrect would
- be greatly appreciated. I have read the SUN, HP, Sequent manuals to no avail.
- The set up is a SPARC (pscgate) as name server for the entire progress.com
- domain with no others subdomains. All mail is handled by the name server
- system pscgate and handed off to the system progress which is a non-DNS
- system.
-
- Thanks in advance.
