Thanks A. Wooden, C. Pinnock and R. Kulawiec for your answers. The directive I was looking for is $GENERATE Original Question: > I think there is a directive in bind to allow this and avoid to > declare each name explicitly, but I don't find it in the > documentation... it's something like "generic" I think... but don't know > the syntax... Below one of the answers: 1. You're probably looking for $GENERATE, I think. 2. Don't do it (the naming) this way. Do it this way: broadband-0001.dynamic.ourdomain.com broadband-0002.dynamic.ourdomain.com i.e. put all the end-user allocations (especially if they are cable, dialup or DSL using DHCP or similar) in a subdomain, and naem the subdomain something that clearly identifies as such. Other examples: broadband-0001.cablemodem.ourdomain.com broadband-0001.dhcp.ourdomain.com broadband-0001.dialups.ourdomain.com broadband-0001.dsl-users.ourdomain.com Why? Because that way you will make it much easier for people doing DNS and/or subdomain anti-spam blocking to list only those and not your entire domain. - Rafael Angarita _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Tue Sep 14 09:30:45 2004
