I have Windows NT 4.0 and I am running the Microsoft DNS service. I have created a couple zones (one for each domain). So I have zone A (domaina.com) and zone B (domainb.com) and everything seems to work good. When I ping www.domaina.com it returns with a reply to the correct web server, since i have created an alias record of www in domain A. However I would like to be able to ping domaina.com without a host and have it go to the same web server. When outside our LAN (on the Internet) I am able to ping either address and it will return with the web server. So I know it is possible since our ISP’s DNS is doing it for all clients on the Internet. How can I make our internal DNS perform this same resolution. I have tried creating an ‘*’ record however then I can use any other host name but it still will not work without typing a host name.
In short I need our internal DNS to resolve www.domaina.com and domaina.com to the same internal web server.
