    Yes, I think the whole CNAME is useless here anyway.

    CNAME is useful, but it does not (and can not) work the way you want.

    These were the recommendations of this service provider, mailgun though..

    where? the CNAME issue is long known and clarifies in RFC 2181, section
    10.1. CNAME resource records
    ...published in 1997.

    Aihe: Re: CNAME / TXT

    If you uncomment that mg CNAME you end up with a CNAME mx and TXT at the same node in to the DNS tree and that is illegal. That is why you get the error "cname and other data". The mx and txt are the other data.

    Cannot figure out what is wrong here… must be something simple but after sitting in airplanes the last 40 hours and it’s 2am…

    Only when I comment out the two lines in the end of the named.harriot, it goes through and BIND load the zone. With those two lines, get the following:

    C:\DNS\etc\namedb>named-checkzone harriot.fi<http://harriot.fi> named.harriot >dns_master_load: named.harriot:33: mg.harriot.fi<http://mg.harriot.fi>: CNAME and other data

    zone harriot.fi/IN<http://harriot.fi/IN>: loading from master file named.harriot failed: CNAME and other data
    zone harriot.fi/IN<http://harriot.fi/IN>: not loaded due to errors.
