[GRLUG] DNS question - not linux

Warning this isn't a linux question but y'all are so knowledgeable I
thought I'd ask this here.

I have a Windows 2008 rc2 set as the DNS server.  I also have
a separate server inside the network serving our public website.  I'd like
to point www.ourwebsite.com to the internal server, but let
mail.fox-sales.com and calendar.fox-sales.com to point where they
should(google right now).

I created a forward lookup zone for ourwebsite.com and added an A record
for www to point to the internal ip address.  This works for
www.ourwebsite.com but the dns server can't find mail.ourwebsite.com.

Is it possible to just point www.ourwebsite.com to an internal address and
ignore all other ourwebsite.com subdomains so they can get the ip address
from the isp's DNS?



Share and Enjoy
