; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; ; This is your SwimAdmin zone file. Lines starting with a semicolon are ; comments, and do not affect the functionality of this file. You can, if you ; wish, remove these comments before uploading this file to your DNS provider. ; ; A 'zone file' (or 'bind file') is a text file which describes a 'zone' in ; the Domain Name System (DNS). Your server provider has assigned an IP ; address to your server, and you have already used that IP address to ; configure your server, and to generate this download. The IP address is, as ; a simple analogy, essentially a telephone number. Your club members can ; always use this telephone number to reach your server, but it's not ; particularly convenient. They would much rather use a simple name (something ; like 'myswimclub.uk', for example). The DNS is essentially the telephone ; book which converts 'myswimclub.uk' to your IP address. ; ; To get on to the DNS, you have to register your IP address and domain with ; a 'DNS provider'. This will get you into the Internet equivalent of the ; 'Telephone Book'. ; ; There are a large number of DNS providers (and you can even do it yourself, ; if you know how). You may or may not have to pay a small amount to register ; your server with one. All DNS providers require a zone file to describe your ; server, and the format of the zone file is an Internet standard. ; ; Your DNS provider may, or may not, allow you to directly upload this zone ; file. Unfortunately, however, many providers don't allow this, and instead ; require you to manually type in specific fields. If this is the case, you ; will not be expected to type in the top 3 lines below. These providers will ; expect you to add specific A, CNAME, MX, NS, and TXT records (these can be ; identified below as 'IN A', 'IN CNAME', 'IN MX', 'IN NS', and 'IN TXT'). You ; will need to create three A records, one CNAME record, one MX record, and ; two TXT records. You will also need to create one or more NS records. ; ; Your zone file will be incomplete if you did not provide any 'Name Server' ; entries when you configured your club. It is your DNS provider who has the ; name servers, so this might be the case if you had not already chosen a ; provider when you initially configured your club. If this is the case, you ; must either modify this zone file when you know which name servers you will ; use, or you must manually add the name servers at your DNS provider. ; ; For the sake of argument, assume that your DNS provider is pointhq.com, and ; that they recommend using 4 of their own name servers: dns-uk.pointhq.com, ; dns-nl.pointhq.com, dns-ca.pointhq.com, and dns-us.pointhq.com. In this ; case, your zone file name server entries should be: ; ; @ IN NS dns-uk.pointhq.com. ; @ IN NS dns-ca.pointhq.com. ; @ IN NS dns-nl.pointhq.com. ; @ IN NS dns-us.pointhq.com. ; ; When you have correctly configured your DNS provider, it may take a little ; while for the changes to propagate around the DNS system (in other words, ; for all the relevant 'phone books' to be updated). This will probably take a ; minute or two, but might instead be a couple of hours. If your domain is ; 'myswimclub.uk', for example, the process has completed when you can browse ; to 'http://myswimclub.uk/configure'. When you can reach this address you ; must complete the second-stage configuration. ; ; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ORIGIN swimtest.org. $TTL 3600 swimtest.org.
