Yes, I think the whole CNAME is useless here anyway.

CNAME is useful, but it does not (and can not) work the way you want.

These were the recommendations of this service provider, mailgun though..

where? the CNAME issue is long known and clarifies in RFC 2181, section
10.1. CNAME resource records
...published in 1997.

Aihe: Re: CNAME / TXT

If you uncomment that mg CNAME you end up with a CNAME mx and TXT at the same node in to the DNS tree and that is illegal. That is why you get the error "cname and other data". The mx and txt are the other data.

Only when I comment out the two lines in the end of the named.harriot, it goes through and BIND load the zone. With those two lines, get the following:

C:\DNS\etc\namedb>named-checkzone harriot.fi<http://harriot.fi> named.harriot >dns_master_load: named.harriot:33: mg.harriot.fi<http://mg.harriot.fi>: CNAME and other data
