dns/named conf-usion [OT]
there are docs that tell what all the fields are spozed to be
in an /etc/bind/* file, sure, but where's the docs that tell me
why my configuration generates all this griping from named?
# ndc restart
/var/log/syslog reports that...

questions--
1) says in both mydomain zone or pri zone that i have no TTL field,
but i do, really i do. see below.
2) why would it ignore items outside the zone--else how could
www.some.mirror.com point to www.uk.mirror.com as a network participant
in a geographically-different location?
3) for my 192.168.*.* intranet, i'd like to have the computers chat
to each other with simple one-word names 'libris' instead of 'libris.pri'.
how's that work?

i've got linux connected to the 'net via my isp,
which works fine; i've got it acting as an ipmasq server,
which works fine; and as a nameserver it works well, too.
i've got three cpu's ethernet-ed together, and linux is the
one connected to the cablemodem/gateway:
E ] -- linus.pri --------- [ mydomain.com -- router -- internet
T 192.168.1.1 208.33.90.85 208.33.90.84 *.*.*.*
H
E ] -- jonathon.pri (mac)
R 192.168.1.100
N
E ] -- libris.pri (pc)
T 192.168.1.200
i've seen the 'totally small-time dns server' howto and while
it thoroughly covers using linux as an internet nameserver, it
only glosses over how to set up an internal intRAnet server (127.*
is covered, but 192.168.*.* ain't.)
