Hi members,
I know wildcard can be setup for A,AAAA,MX etc.
But following this thread,
http://serverfault.com/questions/44618/is-a-wildcard-cname-dns-record-valid
wildcard seems should support CNAME too.
if I setup this:
*.example.com. CNAME wild.example.net.
*.example.com. MX mail.example.net.
www.example.com A 192.168.1.100
When we query for "www.example.com A" or "www.example.com MX", since
there are CNAME exists,they may get conflicted, we won't get the correct
result.
So we shouldn't setup wildcard for a CNAME. am I right?
Thanks.
