Dear domain professionals !!!

I have a problem with my AIX dns when it comes to relaying e-mail to domains.

I wish to have an entry in my DNS /etc/named.data file which works. I have tried the following but it did not work.

*.domain MX 10 myrelay1
*.domain MX 10 myrelay2

What entry should i put in so that when i do a
nslookup for some other domain i get the mx answer to
myrelay1 and myrelay2.
The DNS files are a bit different in AIX than in LINUX.


// any tips wre deeply appreciated Best regards SVKADMIN
 
Oh by the way !!!

Does anybody have a simple sample or a link where i can find out how to set up the /etc/named.conf file for AIX.

This is a stand alone server which does not have contact to outside world. It can not forward questions to other servers and should only ask itself.

// Best regards SVKADMIN
