Creating SRV Records in Bind

[guapunya]

hi all.

this might be too simple thing to some of you or even a stupid question to others. but i need to add in few lines of SRV Records in Bind. how can i do that within WHM? or even manually via terminal.

I know this is an old topic, but it does not seem to work. When you query dnsstuff.com with SRV for domain, it doesnt return any records. I have given it plenty of time to take effect (months) and only recently was I reminded of this. Is there any reason why it doesnt work or how I could make it work?

This article at
LinuxQuestions.org may be of some help.

I'm not a big fan of editing zone files from SSH (unless you know what you are doing) -- using the WHM interface will insure the serial number is updated and bind restarted.

Unfortunately SRV records are not available as a choice in WHM. I prefer WHM a great deal but oh well!

Thanks!
