Windows 2003 DNS Server Setup?
Hi,

for the first time I tried setting up a DNS server on my dedicated server.

This is what my DNS file looks like:

;
; Database file systemstradinggroup.com.dns for systemstradinggroup.com zone.
; Zone version: 21
;

@ IN SOA ns1.systemstradinggroup.com. hostmaster.systemstradinggroup.com. (
21 ; serial number
3600 ; refresh
600 ; retry
1209600 ; expire
3600 ) ; default TTL

;
; Zone NS records
;

@ NS ns1.systemstradinggroup.com.
@ NS ns2.systemstradinggroup.com.

;
; Zone records
;

@ MX 10 greentree01.systemstradinggroup.com.
greentree01 A 69.56.133.58
mail CNAME greentree01.systemstradinggroup.com.
ns1 A 69.56.133.60
ns2 A 69.56.133.61
www CNAME greentree01.systemstradinggroup.com.


However, name resolution... pinging .. etc. nothing works .. what am i doing wrong?

You have not added an 'A' record for the root domain. Something like this is expected:

@ A 127.0.0.1

So I guess you meant setting it to the server IP?

Can I set multiple A records for one IP?

naturally I did not know which IP you needed to use.

And yes, you may provide multiple records per domain:

@ A 127.0.0.1
@ A 127.0.0.2
@ A 127.0.0.3
