Hi, not a major issue, but one that niggles me, and I haven't been able to find an option to control the behaviour.
When I create a new virtual site including DNS zone, the zone file it creates has all the names in it as absolute names:
$ttl 38400
@ IN SOA ns3.softins.co.uk. root.ns3.softins.co.uk. (
2015121300
10800
3600
604800
38400 )
@ IN NS ns3.softins.co.uk.
@ IN NS ns1.softins.co.uk.
xyzzy.com. IN A 217.160.239.96
www.xyzzy.com. IN A 217.160.239.96
<!--break-->
ftp.xyzzy.com. IN A 217.160.239.96
localhost.xyzzy.com. IN A 127.0.0.1
webmail.xyzzy.com. IN A 217.160.239.96
admin.xyzzy.com. IN A 217.160.239.96
mail.xyzzy.com. IN A 217.160.239.96
xyzzy.com. IN MX 5 mail.xyzzy.com.
xyzzy.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 a mx a:xyzzy.com ip4:217.160.239.96 ?all"
Which I find to have a lot of unnecessary repetition of the zone name.
Is there an option to make Virtualmin/Webmin always use relative names in the file so that it instead looks like this? (which in my opinion is clearer and less cluttered)
$ttl 38400
@ IN SOA ns3.softins.co.uk. root.ns3.softins.co.uk. (
2015121300
10800
3600
604800
38400 )
@ IN NS ns3.softins.co.uk.
@ IN NS ns1.softins.co.uk.
xyzzy IN A 217.160.239.96

Thanks in advance! Tony
