Hi

I am trying to use Bind as named. And I have successfully set up a chrooted bind.

Anyway, I cannot have it resolve "www" directly.

For example, when I am using nslookup, when enter www.example.com, it will resolve. But when enter www, it will not. I want to have www resolve to www.example.com, what should I do? I have already set $ORIGIN in the zone file, but it does not work.

Thanks.

If you have created a zone file for example.com in /var/named/chroot/var/named/example.zone

All you need to do is to add the entry below to your zone file www A ###.###.###.###

This is what I did anyway, and it is working great!!
