Hello there,

We've had a client that is finding issues with DNS management in Direct Admin.
He wants to add the following for domain via DirectAdmin ->"DNS Management" section

wap.domain.com. CNAME modhi.domain.org
domain.com. CNAME modhi.domain.org

Clients Quote :
First line i add w/o any problem, but when i try to add the second one i got an error
Error Writing Records

Details

Unable to save dns zone: named-zonecheck returned:
loading "domain.com" from "/var/named/domain.com.db.temp" class "IN"
dns_master_load: /var/named/domain.com.db.temp:28: domain.com: CNAME and other data
dns_master_load: /var/named/domain.com.db.temp:28: domain.com: CNAME and other data
dns_master_load: /var/named/domain.com.db.temp:33: domain.com: CNAME and other data
zone domain.com/IN: loading master file /var/named/domain.com.db.temp: CNAME and other data

I tried figuring out the issue that might be, but really struggling to hit the right string and would appreciate if someone could be help me with that.

Thanks.

Hello,

Code:
domain.com. CNAME modhi.domain.org.

You can not add CNAME record for domain.com, just only for wap.domain.com. Please read RFC for details or search the forums for explanations.
