    Hello all!

    First, sorry for my bad english (I'm working on it :D).

    This month I'm testing MaraDNS as my DNS server, but I'm unable to set it (I never configured a DNS server, only few tests with Bind).

    My domain is registered with Name.com and I've registered a new NS ns1.mydomain.com (since I've only 1 IP address).

    Then I've installed MaraDNS and my config file is (well, my VPS is down at the moment, I wil try to remember...):

    Code:
    mydomain.com. NS     ns1.mydomain.com. ~
    mydomain.com.  A       123.123.123.123 ~
    www.mydomain.com. A 123.123.123.123 ~
    
    I can view my webserver page if I visit mydomain.com but if I visit www.mydomain.com I see my ISP error page (this happen also if I visit ns1.mydomain.com).

    Can someone tell me how to set up the DNS?
    Thanks.

    PS: Since my VPS have only 128 MB of RAM I've choose MaraDNS.
    I'm running Debian 4.0

    Ok, I solved, I can now see subdomains, send emails...only one problem...
    Hotmail see my mails as spam :mad::mad:
    I've set up a spf (txt) record.
    Since I've only a basic postfix + dovecot installation can be a configuration problem? :(
