[cobalt-security] Cobalt raQ4r /etc/named question

RE raQ4r

Hi There

I am configuring on of my domains to take a wild card.

Will this open me up to any security problems?

I am doing the following:

--- SNIP ---

moonmerchant.com. IN SOA moon.moonlink.net. admin.moon.moonlink.net. (

2001082016

10800

3600

604800

86400

)

moonmerchant.com. IN NS moon.moonlink.net.

; End SOA Header

;

; Do Not edit BIND db files directly.

; Use the administrative web user interface

; /admin/ -> Control Panel -> DNS Parameters

; Custom additions may be made by creating a file of the same name as this
but

; with a; .include suffix. Click Save Changes in the DNS web interface and

; the inclusion will be made.

;

moonmerchant.com. in a 207.155.67.82

mail.moonmerchant.com. in a 207.155.67.82

www.moonmerchant.com. in a 207.155.67.82

moonmerchant.com. in mx 30 moonmerchant.com.

~

---------------------- /SNIP ------------------------

I am going to make a file in /etc/named called

pri.moonmerchant.com.include   <-- is this the correct file extention?

In the file will be the statement

*     in     a     207.155.67.82

Has any one had any experience with this?

I am using a web based web page maker that requires a wild card statement.

My main concern is security and most important I don't want to break my
raQ4r that has been working GREAT.

Thanks

Jerry Davis
