Bind: translate a fake domain into an external (real) ip

[suvois]

Hi guys,

I am playing around a little with my just installed bind server (bind9) and wondering if it maybe would also be possible to make bind resolve fake domains into an external ip pointing to (for example) Google.com. So, that if I type (for example) only the word "Google" into my webbrowser that bind (following my local zone file) wil send me directly to google.com.

I already tried something like this, but it didn't work:

Code: Select all

google.      IN      SOA     ns.google. home.(

                                                        2006081401
                                                        28800
                                                        3600
                                                        604800
                                                        38400
 )

@    IN       A      74.125.133.101

And doing "dig google" I get:

Code: Select all

; <<>> DiG 9.8.4-rpz2+rl005.12-P1 <<>> google

If you want to do this for just your local machine or server, then you can accomplish this in /etc/hosts

Simply add the following to /etc/hosts

Code: Select all

216.58.217.142  google.com  google
