    hello
    i have created a NSD domain dns and now i would like to create another A Record to use for a hostname.
    do i just add the A Record in the
    /etc/nsd/master/newdomain.com.zone

    or do i follow another procedure?

    thank you

    yeah just add to the existing domain.com.zone file in /etc/nsd/master and restart nsd service afterwards :)

    Though for reliability and performance you should use a 3rd party for DNS hosting :)

    123.09beta01 doesn't install NSD by default anymore, use centmin.sh menu option 20 submenu option to do that first :)

    i should add a check for that in centmin.sh menu option 3
